Prediction: 1-0
Vancouver Whitecaps
San Diego FC will try to recover from a shocking 1-0 loss to Toronto FC when they face Vancouver Whitecaps in the Western Conference derby. San Diego failed to impress in the midweek defeat, but despite the loss, they are still leading the chase for the Conference trophy. Mexico winger Hirving Lozano is pushing for a start, while the likes of Kumado, Reyes, Ingvartsen, Godoy, and Alvarado remain in the recovery room.
Meanwhile, the Canadian outfit have a chance to overtake San Diego FC in top position in the standings, but given their difficulties on the road, we are tempted to place our bets on the newcomers. It has to be noted that Vancouver have suffered three defeats in the previous five away games in the Major League Soccer. All Adekugbe, Ahmed, and Gauld are out of contention with injuries for the visiting side.
Highlighted Team (Vancouver Whitecaps):
Vancouver Whitecaps are yet another Canadian side that compete in Major League Soccer. Vancouver began play in the USA top flight in 2011 and one year later they became the first Canadian outfit to book their place in the MLS Cup play-offs. However, star-studded Los Angeles Galaxy proved to be a big catch for the Whitecaps in the knockout round. Vancouver, though, did remarkably well to win the Canadian Championship in 2015, with the team beating Montreal Impact in the title game.
In 2016 they made it to the final of the tournament as well, but Toronto FC eventually won the trophy. The Whitecaps are owned by Greg Kerfoot, Steve Luczo, Jeff Mallett and Steve Steve Nash, the former NBA star, and they play their home matches at BC Place. Speaking of MLS games, the capacity of the venue is 22.120 and you should know that the stadium was opened back in 1983. The Caps wear white shirts and white shorts when playing at home, while the colour of their away kit is blue.
