Prediction: 2-1
Minnesota United
San Jose Earthquakes will look to extend their perfect start to the 2025 MLS season when they welcome Minnesota United to PayPal Park on Sunday. The Quakes have been in fine form early in the campaign and will be eager to make it three wins from three. Despite Hernan Lopez’s suspension, they remain favorites, with their attacking setup proving effective in the opening games.
Minnesota United, meanwhile, continue to struggle on the road, having recently suffered a 2-0 defeat to Los Angeles FC. Their away form has been a concern, and with key players such as Keller, Rosales, Taylor, and Mesanvi being sidelined with injuries, their chances of ending San Jose’s winning run appear slim. The Earthquakes will look to take advantage of their opponent’s weaknesses and maintain their early momentum. Given their strong start and Minnesota’s travel struggles, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed.
Highlighted Team (San Jose Earthquakes):
San Jose Earthquakes are members of the Western Conference of Major League Soccer. The Quakes have been participating in the league since 1996 and they won their first MLS Cup trophy in 2001. Back then San Jose outplayed star-studded Los Angeles Galaxy in the title game, but it has to be noted that they scored the winner in the extra time.
Two years later the Quakes managed to repeat the success, with the team beating Chicago Fire in the 2003 MLS Cup final. Avaya Stadium is the home ground of San Jose Earthquakes and the capacity of the venue is 18.000. The construction of the stadium cost no less than $100 million and the venue was opened in March, 2015. The club’s home colors are blue and black, whilst the Quakes wear white and red shirts and white shorts when playing on the travels.
Chris Wondolowski is the club’s biggest star and he has been playing for San Jose Earthquakes since 2009. The USA ace has 121 league goals on his account ahead of the start of the 2017 season.
