San Jose Earthquakes
Minnesota and San Jose Earthquakes take on each other at Allianz Field in round 4 of the new MLS campaign. Minnesota aim to extend their unbeaten run in the 2022 season, and they must be high on spirits following a 1-0 win over New York Red Bulls. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, and it is no wonder the Loons are seen as favourites to win Sunday’s clash.
The Wizards, on the other hand, made a slow start to the season, with the team collecting only one point in total from the first three games. Considering that San Jose have been struggling at the back of late, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on Minnesota United. All Nathan, Salinas, and Skahan should miss out with injuries for the visiting side, which is yet another reason why home win should be considered.
