If you are doubting our San Jose Earthquakes vs Austin predictions, you should check out the following statistics.

San Jose Earthquakes team news and form: Bad news turned worse

Coach Luchi Gonzalez is desperate. His team is at the bottom of the table in the Western Conference and got kicked out of the U.S. Open Cup after a disappointing 4-3 loss against Sacramento Republic F.C. on the 22^nd of May. Surely, the goalkeeping injuries of Daniel and Marcinkowski have hit San Jose Earthquakes hard.

Predicted lineup: Yarbrough (GK), Akapo, Wilson, Rodrigues, Costa, Gruezo, Yueill, Pellegrino, Lopez, Espinoza & Ebobisse

Austin team news and form: Austin climbing the ladder

The team from Texas is currently in 3^rd place in the Western Conference. With Sebastian Druissi among the starters, the visitors just can’t lose. They avoided defeat in four of the last five Major League Soccer outings, and we believe such will be the case against the Quakes as well.

Predicted lineup: Stuver (GK), Kolmanic, Hines-Ike, Cascante, Gallagher, Pereira, Valencia, Obrian, Wolff, Driussi & Rubio

Player to watch: William Yarbrough

Goalkeeping legend William Yarbrough is the player to watch in our San Jose Earthquakes vs Austin prediction, as he will be a starter against Austin. Considering Daniel’s and Marcinkowski’s injuries, we are convinced that coach Luchi Gonzalez will opt to give him another chance among the starters.

Is 35 an age to stop?

At the age of 35, William is close to the end of his career. Considering the fact that San Jose are at the bottom of the table, with the worst defensive record, perhaps thoughts of retirement are already running through Yarbrough’s head.
