San Jose Earthquakes vs Nashville SC Prediction and Betting Tips - 16th April 2022

Seeking to pick up their first win of the new MLS season, San Jose Earthquakes play host to Nashville SC at the PayPal Park on Saturday.

The visitors, meanwhile, head into the game on a two-match winning streak and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling.

San Jose Earthquakes failed to find their feet last weekend as they fell to a narrow 4-3 loss against Houston Dynamo.

They have now failed to taste victory in six straight games, claiming two draws and losing four since the start of the season.

San Jose Earthquakes remain rooted to the bottom of the Western Conference table after picking up just two points from six rounds of matches.

Elsewhere, Nashville picked up two successive wins for the first time since last September as they saw off Sporting Kansas City 2-1 away from home.

This followed a 1-0 win at Columbus Crew on April 2 which saw their three-game winless run come to an end.

With 10 points from six games, Nashville are currently seventh in the Western Conference standings.
