Colorado Rapids challenge San Jose Earthquake in the Dick’s Sporting Goods Park for another exciting clash. San Jose Earthquakes grabbed a narrow win in the previous match between these two on their ground. The two teams played a 0-0 draw in the first 45 minutes before Nathan Cardoso gave San Jose the only goal of the match in the 64th minute. Colorado Rapids did their best to register 5 shots on target against the hosts, but failed to find the back of the net.
Colorado Rapids are 10th in the Western Conference table with 36 points, while San Jose Earthquakes are bottom of the log with 30 points. 3 points will be a huge boost for both sides who aim to climb higher the table.

Jonathan Lewis finally put the game to bed in the 75th minute to secure all 3 points for Colorado Rapids.

San Jose Earthquakes are one of the poorest teams this season. Last time out they were trashed 6-0 against FC Cincinnati. The hosts dominate every part of the game, taking the lead in the 44th minute and scoring 5 goals in the second half including 2 spot kicks in the 71st and 95th minutes. Although San Jose Earthquakes had more possession, they did little to stop the hosts who fired as many as 20 shots with 10 on target.
In 5/7 matches, San Jose Earthquakes have been first to concede and they have lost the first half. They have also seen less than 4.5 cards in 5/7 matches.

Expert Betting Tips
Both teams are quite unpredictable at the moment, in addition to the massive injury list affecting both teams. This should be a tight affair but I expect Colorado Rapids to play better in front of thousands of fans. The San Jose Earthquakes should struggle to find their rhythm here.
