Prediction: 2-0
San Jose Earthquakes
Dallas will be looking to build on a 3-2 win over Sporting Kansas City when they square off against San Jose Earthquakes at their Toyota Stadium. The Toros aim to cement top position in the Western Conference and we predict that they are going to adopt an attack-minded approach in Sunday’s football match. Dallas have been impressive at home ground this term, with the team recording a win in each of their last four games at their Toyota Stadium and given San Jose’s poor form, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Oscar Pareja’s troops. The Earthquakes failed to score in previous three league fixtures and that is the main reason why we are tempted to put our money on Dallas. In their last meeting in MLS San Jose emerged triumphant, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.
