Odds perspective:
If you’re putting money on this one, here’s the no-bull take.
San Jose Earthquakes at 2.95 to win feels a tad skinny given their inconsistencies in the MLS this term. Their xG (expected goals) suggest they’re overperforming — analytics guys would steer clear.

The smart money’ll likely target the Draw 2.15 — these derbies often follow scripts, and occasion can kill attacking flow.
