“The San Jose Earthquakes are absolutely tearing through the MLS,” said Luke DiVasta, VSiN contributor.
DiVasta noted that San Jose’s defense has allowed only 25 shots all season, which ranks as the third-best defensive mark in the league. He highlighted that while St. Louis holds the historical advantage, the current form of both clubs has diverged significantly.
“San Jose won’t stay this hot forever, but the form they are in and the numbers backing them up are something I can’t ignore at this price,” said Luke DiVasta, VSiN contributor.
St. Louis recently welcomed back Eduard Löwen, who scored his 20th career goal for the club during stoppage time in Seattle. The team has remained strong at Energizer Park this season, conceding only three goals in their home fixtures thus far.
