San Diego team news and form: Unbeatable San Diego aim high

The visitors not only managed to avoid defeat this season, but they faced some difficult opponents so far. Sure, the coach won’t be able to use designated player Hirving Lozano, but it doesn’t seem like this fact is stopping the San Diego machine from demolishing one opponent after the other.

Predicted lineup: dos Santos (GK), Kumado, McVey, McNair, Bombino, Godoy, Tsverkov, De La Torre, Dreyer, Ingvarsten & Gutierrez

Player to watch: Brad Stuver

Brad Stuver’s capabilities are unmatched. With only two goals conceded since the start of the season, Stuver is probably the key reason behind San Diego’s success. If he is among the starters for the visitors, then our chief Austin vs San Diego predictions will surely succeed.

Second player to watch: Guilherme Biro

Guilherme Biro scored an 11th-minute winner versus Los Angeles at BMO Stadium last week. We are confident that he has a place among the starters for the home side, as there aren’t that many quality players for the manager to choose from.
