Minnesota United vs SJ Earthquakes Prediction & Preview
Preview
Minnesota United welcomes SJ Earthquakes to Allianz Field on Sunday, July 21st, in a Major League Soccer clash. The home team, coached by Eric Ramsay, will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing run of form that has seen them pick up just one point from their last five matches.
In contrast, the visitors, led by Luchi Gonzalez, have fared slightly better, taking three points from their last five outings. However, SJ Earthquakes' away form is a concern, with an average of zero goals scored per game on the road.
The two teams have a recent history, having drawn 1-1 at Allianz Field in their last meeting on October 1st, 2023. In fact, Minnesota United has only managed one win in their last five head-to-head encounters against SJ Earthquakes, with two draws and two defeats.
Minnesota United's average of 1.4 goals scored per game is significantly higher than SJ Earthquakes' 0.4 goals per game. However, the home team's defense has been leaky, conceding an average of 2.4 goals per game. At home, Minnesota United averages 1.5 goals scored and 3 goals conceded per game.
SJ Earthquakes, on the other hand, have struggled to find the net, scoring only 0.4 goals per game on average. They have also been solid at the back, conceding an average of 1.6 goals per game.
In their last match, Minnesota United suffered a 3-2 defeat against DC United at Allianz Field, while SJ Earthquakes lost 1-0 to Houston Dynamo at Avaya Stadium.
Bet
Considering the recent form and goal-scoring statistics, I would recommend a bet on Over 2.5 goals at odds of 1.44. Minnesota United's leaky defense and SJ Earthquakes' struggles in front of goal suggest that there could be plenty of goals in this match. With the home team averaging 1.5 goals scored per game at Allianz Field, and the visitors conceding an average of 2 goals per game on the road, Over 2.5 goals looks like a solid bet.
