DC United vs San Jose Earthquakes Preview & Picks


DC United hammered Chicago Fire 4-0 in their last match as they ended a worrying three-game losing run in style. 

The San Jose Earthquakes are now winless in their last three, with a 1-1 draw with Minnesota United a disappointing result. 

  • DC have three wins in their last 10 (L6, D1)
  • United have kept one clean sheet in their last five
  • San Jose are winless in their last three (D1, L2)
  • The Earthquakes have only won twice on the road (D4, L7)

Head-To-Head


The Earthquakes triumphed 2-1 the last time the two met, with this extending their unbeaten run over United to three matches  including two wins in their last two. 

DC United Form 


DC United have struggled for form of late, with the side winning just three of their last 10, while they have lost three of their last four. 

Currently sitting in ninth in the Eastern Conference, DC are a point clear of the Fire in 10th, but they will know they have a huge test ahead of them if they are to keep hold of their place in the playoff spots. 

At home, DC have been fairly good. Five wins in 13 matches have come alongside four draws and four defeats, and they will fancy their chances of notching a sixth home win this week. 

San Jose Earthquakes Form


San Jose Earthquakes have frustrated of late, with two wins over the Seattle Saunders and Vancouver Whitecaps making way for two defeats and a draw. 

San Jose are quite like DC in the sense they are only a few points clear of the sides looking to break into the playoff berths, with three points between themselves and Austin FC in 10th. 

While the Earthquakes will feel this is a game they can win, they have only secured two victories on the road this season, with this coming alongside four draws and seven defeats. A win in this one would be against the form book. 

Verdict

I am backing DC to secure the win in this one as the pair find the back of the net in the match.
