Earthquakes vs Saint-Louis Prediction 16 August 2026
🔊 In this MLS regular season match, San Jose Earthquakes will play against St. Louis City. Both teams have enough attacking potential for the game to produce a large number of chances created. The opponents will likely please all fans of high-scoring football.
Head-to-Head
📊 The last match between these two sides took place at the end of April this year. San Jose were playing away, but that didn't stop them from winning 3-2. It is worth noting that St. Louis have a significant advantage in the context of the last 5 head-to-head matches (4 wins to 1).
Head-to-head statistics Earthquakes - Saint-Louis
San-Jose Earthquakes Team Overview
The team's most recent official match took place on as part of the MLS tournament (home team - Cincinnati, away team - San-Jose Earthquakes). The match concluded with a scoreline of 4:2.
Here's the game statistics (San-Jose Earthquakes vs Cincinnati):
- ball possession: 40% vs 60%;
- corner kicks: 6 vs 9;
- fouls: 6 vs 12;
- yellow cards: 0 vs 3;
- shots on target: 2 vs 11.
At the moment, the hosts are going through far from their best times: 3 losses in 5 matches. In the previous round they lost to Cincinnati 2:4. There was also a thrashing from Orlando (0:4). However, recent statistics are not a fully reliable indicator of their overall condition: in terms of goals, the team still has a positive balance. With 37 goals scored and 24 conceded (in 18 matches), this allows them to sit 3rd in the Western Conference. And at home, you can still expect a return to their usual attacking output. The defense, however, may continue to experience the same problems. In MLS, defensive struggles are an acceptable cost.

Saint-Louis City Team Overview
The away team played their last official match on as part of the MLS tournament (home team - Saint-Louis City, away - Real Salt-Lake). The match concluded with a scoreline of 1:1.
Here are the match stats (Saint-Louis City vs Real Salt-Lake):

- corner kicks: 9 vs 4;

St. Louis players have hit excellent form: 4 wins and one draw in their last 5 matches. Although in the standings they are a regular mid-table side in the Western Conference (7th place). Looking at the goal statistics, it is also hard to talk about any clear preference for high-scoring football (averaging roughly 1.5 goals scored and conceded). But there have been brighter matches recently. For example, they beat Los Angeles Galaxy 3:1, and away from home at that. So a match away from their own ground can be associated with at least a decent attacking display.

⭐ Editor's Pick
In this match San Jose have a slightly more favorable chance. But it should be an extremely interesting battle. One side needs to get back to an acceptable level, while the other needs to build on recent success. In both cases, the opponents may share the intention of playing through attack. This kind of vertical football is a typical prerequisite for a high-scoring scenario and outcome. Our editors recognize this and allow for the possibility that the match ends 2-2. Let's try a bet on total over 2.5 goals.
