Match description
San Jose Earthquakes arrive in markedly better form: they have 8 wins and 1 loss this season with a goal record of 22 scored and 4 conceded, while St. Louis shows 1 win, 3 draws and 4 losses with a 7-13 record. In the last 5 matches San Jose won all 5 games (17 goals scored and 3 conceded), whereas St. Louis has 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss (10-7), which translates to an average of 3 points per game for the visitors versus 1.6 points for the hosts. The home side averages 15 shots with 7.33 on target and has an xG of 1.94 per match, but converts that to only 1.33 goals (9% conversion), while San Jose scores 2.25 goals away on 9 shots with a 25% conversion. Defensively the visitors are stronger — they concede 0.5 goals on average away and keep clean sheets in 50% of away games, while St. Louis concedes 1.0 goal at home and have yet to keep a clean sheet (0%). Given the much higher finishing efficiency (2.25 vs 1.33) as well as form and defensive stability, I predict an away win.
