San Jose Earthquakes
After sharing the spoils with FC Dallas at the weekend, Vancouver Whitecaps will look to return to winning ways when they face San Jose Earthquakes in an eagerly-awaited MLS game. The Canadians are eyeing their third consecutive clean sheet and they are likely to rely on their improved defence in Sunday’s encounter. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but both Brian White and Max Anchor remain in the recovery room.
The Earthquakes, on the other hand, are stuck at the bottom with only 17 points on their account. As Ian Russell’s men have little to play for in the season finale, we are tempted to bet on Vancouver, who are eyeing a top-seven finish in the Western Conference. To make things even more complicated for the visiting side, important midfielder Carlos Gruezo misses out through suspension. The likes of Jeremy Ebobisse, Carlos Akapo, Bruno Wilson, Jamar Ricketts,and JT Marcinkowski are injured for the away team.
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.
