A Californian matchup between San Jose Earthquakes and LA Galaxy is on this Saturday. The home team is in the playoff area but has to win to stay there, while Galaxy seems pretty poor this year.
Before Betting on San Jose Earthquakes vs. LA Galaxy
The hosts aren’t very good lately, having three contests in a row without a victory, including back-to-back losses to Houston Dynamo and St. Louis. That cost them a lot, because now, the teams from the play-in area are within a win away from the Quakes. It’s why three points are imperative for the home team.
Six of their most recent seven home appearances were with moderate efficiency, meaning two or three goals. Also, both teams scoring have taken place in five of those contests. When looking at their record at PayPal Park, we need to add that San Jose has six wins in ten meetings, three ties, and one defeat.
Galaxy encountered injuries that hurt them a lot this year. Top star, Javier Hernandez, known as Chicharito, is injured, as well as the veteran star Martin Caceres, so the 13th position in the West isn’t surprising. Simply, Galaxy can’t do better.
At the moment, Greg Vanney’s team posted three straight ties – St. Louis, Sporting Kansas City, and Colorado, and has massive problems in attack, where they managed to rack up only 16 goals in 18 games. It is even worst on the road, where they scored five times in 10 encounters.
