⭐ Editorial Prediction
Season stats indicate that San Jose Earthquakes maintain a solid balance between attack and defense. The under 3.5 goals trend has hit in six of their last seven home matches-a consistent pattern this campaign. Dallas, meanwhile, haven't looked particularly secure at the back, but their attacking output on the road often falls short against top-tier sides, making high-scoring games rare. Our main prediction is under 3.5 goals.
