Betting on Austin FC
Last week, Austin FC suffered its fourth defeat of the season, losing 2-0 against the LA Galaxy. This loss only highlighted the team’s shortcomings in a campaign where it has found it difficult to achieve positive results. In fact, the team has only won two out of eight matches played, and it has now gone winless for five matches, recording three losses and two draws.
However, this upcoming match is an opportunity for the team to redeem itself in front of its crowd, as it will be playing its fifth home match of the year. Playing at home, the team has only lost one of the four games, recording a win and two draws in its two most recent matches.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Brad Stuver; Nick Lima, Alexander Ring, Leo Väisänen, Jon Gallagher; Ethan Finlay, Owen Wolff, Daniel Pereira Gil, Emiliano Rigoni; Maximiliano Urruti, Sebastian Driussi.
Betting on the San Jose Earthquakes
The San Jose Earthquakes team was on a roll, but it suffered its third loss of the season in the last match it played against Real Salt Lake 3-1. Moreover, the team also lost in the US Open Cup by the minimum difference, making it the team’s second loss in a row.
Before that, the team had gone undefeated for four matches in the MLS, which is its best positive streak so far in 2023. Now, facing its fifth match away, the San Jose team needs to show its quality and look for that first win.
The Earthquakes have not won on rival territory since July 2022, recording an alarming streak of three draws and nine defeats.
Probable lineup (4-3-2-1): James Marcinkowski; Carlos Akapo, Jonathan Mensah, Rodrigues, Paul Marie; Jackson Yueill, Carlos Gruezo, Jamiro Monteiro; Cristian Espinoza, Jeremy Ebobisse; Cade Cowell.
JefeBet Prediction
The Texan franchise has an unparalleled opportunity to turn its season around. Playing at home should be enough motivation to win the match, as well as the positive streak that indicates the team has gone undefeated for four matches at home. However, what gives the home team some extra advantage ahead of this match is its opponent away performance. San Jose has remained winless for nine months, and this clash does not look like one that could help it break such a losing streak, so at JefeBet, we predict a home team win.
Prediction: Moneyline of Austin FC (AUS 3-1 SAN)
