Prediction: 2-1
San Jose Earthquakes
Seattle Sounders will be looking to put icing on the cake on a very successful regular season when they take on San Jose Earthquakes at their CenturyLink Field in their last league match. Seattle are eyeing their fifth consecutive win in the Major League Soccer and a triumph over San Jose could see them secure a top-two finish. The Sounders are likely to leave their hearts on the field in Sunday’s football match and seeing that San Jose have nothing to play for in this game, home win should be considered. San Jose are on an eight-game winless run in all competitions and we do not believe that the rock-bottom side are capable of upsetting the high-flying Sounders. A man to watch in the home team will be Raul Ruidiaz, who scored his eight goal of the season in a 3-2 win over Houston Dynamo.

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 colours 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.
