Saint Louis City SC
- Saint Louis City SC occupy 26th place in MLS 2026 after eight games with six points on the board, and they will face a real test of their credentials when in-form San Jose Earthquakes come to town on Sunday.
- Saint Louis City SC have won two, drawn two and lost one of their last five games in all competitions, drawing 1-1 away at FC Dallas in MLS before thrashing regional USL team Tulsa Roughnecks FC 4-0 at home in the US Open Cup and losing their most recent match 1-0 away at Seattle Sounders.
San Jose Earthquakes
- San Jose Earthquakes have won all four of their MLS 2026 away games, averaging 2.25 goals per game and conceding 0.5 on average.
- San Jose’s last three away games have been wins.
- The visiting team, who are second in the MLS 2026 standings with 21 points from eight games, have been almost perfect in the opening few months of the season.
Head-to-Head
Saint Louis City have a perfect record against San Jose, but that is more down to the visitors’ poor form in those games and nothing to do with the two clubs’ positions in the table this season.
Key Players
- João Klauss remains the best forward in this team, but Marcel Hartel, who has scored two goals in seven MLS 2026 games, brings a spark to midfield and plays an essential role in this Saint Louis City SC team.
- Cristian Espinoza can produce moments of magic on the flanks to unlock defenses.
- Ousseni Bouda has scored four goals in eight MLS 2026 appearances for San Jose and leads the line for a strong team.
Betting Insights
- San Jose are 3.02 to win this away game, which is almost unfathomable given the visitors have won four of four on the road in MLS 2026.
- The odds of both teams to score are 1.49, and over 2.5 goals is available at 1.65.
Prediction
- But San Jose are the better team and we’re taking them to edge this one.
- The quality in San Jose’s final third should be enough to earn the away side all three points.
