Our Predictions
Vancouver are solid at home with three wins from their last five; San Jose have failed to win away in the same stretch. The Whitecaps’ defense is among the league’s best with 11 clean sheets. Backing the home team at 1.57 offers strong value against a struggling San Jose side.
Both teams have found the net regularly in recent matches. San Jose have scored in each of their last five, but haven’t kept a clean sheet in ten. Vancouver’s attacking form at home also supports this pick at attractive 1.50 odds.
Four of the last five meetings produced at least three goals. Vancouver average nearly 2 goals per home game and San Jose have seen high-scoring results lately. Combined with shaky San Jose defending, over 2.5 goals at 1.44 is a smart choice.
