It’s been some time since Vancouver Whitecaps managed to get a win over the Quakes. Three years exactly. How could our San Jose Earthquakes vs Vancouver Whitecaps predictions possibly fail?

San Jose Earthquakes team news and form: Lackluster Quakes need a win

With two losses since the start of the 2024 Major League Soccer campaign, coach Luchi Gonzalez has to get a win if he wants to prove to his bosses he has what it takes to get the team to the next level. He won’t be able to count on backup goalkeeper JT Marcinkowski, but with Daniel under the sticks, the Quakes have a good chance of getting a result over Vancouver Whitecaps.

Predicted lineup: Daniel (GK), Akapo, Rodrigues, Beason, Marie, Yueill, Gruezo, Skahan, Ebobisse, Espinoza & Pellegrino

Player to watch: Cristian Espinoza

Ever since he joined the Quakes back in 2019, Cristian Espinoza just couldn’t stop scoring goals. Seeing as he couldn’t do that in 2024, we believe he will be more than eager to prove our San Jose Earthquakes vs Vancouver Whitecaps predictions correct.

Espinoza will score against Vancouver Whitecaps

The 2023 Major League Soccer campaign was the most fruitful one for Cristian Espinoza so far. He made a total of 35 appearances, scoring on 13 occasions and supplying teammates with eight assists. Espinoza surely has the right stuff to be a difference-maker for his manager against Vancouver Whitecaps.
