San Jose Earthquakes
St Louis City will look to put an end to their three-game losing run in all competitions when they take on San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday evening. St Louis City have suffered a dip in form and they must be low on confidence following a midweek loss to Colorado Rapids. Manager Olof Mellberg is expected to make changes to the starting XI, with both Celio Pompeu and Simon Becher pushing for recalls.
The Earthquakes, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Los Angeles Galaxy. San Jose have been in a much better form of late than St Louis City, which is probably the main reason why away win should be considered. The likes of Arango, Buck, Daniel, and Tsakiris are all expected to miss out with injuries for the visiting side, while Wilson Valdez is a major doubt.
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.
