My Prediction
Minnesota United FC by 1Oh happy day, we've got Minnesota United FC doing a dance with San Jose Earthquakes. Looking back at their encore performances, Minnesota seems to love the lead. They sing their victory song louder, circling San Jose in their past four matches, stealing the spotlight three times, and sharing it just once.
The goalkeeper scene for this show? San Jose's star goalie Daniel, shooting for the stars with a rating of 7.52 and 18 saves, seems a formidable force. Now, over at Minnesota, they've got a bit of a two-man band with Dayne St. Clair and Wessel Speel both with ratings over 6.5. Sadly though, they seem a bit underworked or under-performing with only 5 saves apiece.
Let's roll out the red carpet for the top players now, shall we? San Jose's shining stars Espinoza, Arango, and Leroux take center stage; specifically, Arango and Leroux's knack for finding the net is noteworthy. The surprise talent here is Daniel Munie; even though he hasn't scored, his 90% accurate passing displays a beautiful backup performance. Meanwhile, Minnesota's Oluwaseyi, Harvey, and Markanich have been stirring up some buzz. Although big man Oluwaseyi hasn't quite found his scoring boots yet, his 7.90 rating shows that he isn't a slacker.
Taking a quick peak at their regular season records, it appears Minnesota is leading the charge with a dazzling record of 10-7-4 compared to San Jose's just "okay" record of 7-7-7. On top of that, Minnesota's recent performance looks like a jazzy tango compared to San Jose's slow waltz of a draw, a draw, and a win, and then another draw and a loss.
So, are you ready for the grand finale? The drumroll, please? There you have it.
