We said: San Jose Earthquakes 3-2 Vancouver Whitecaps

Given the low expectations of a rebuilding Earthquakes team, San Jose should feel much more encouraged by their defeat than Vancouver. The Caps have been consistently poor away from home, winning a total of three matches or fewer in their previous four regular seasons, and as good as they are at creating chances, Vancouver have not shown the capability of closing down space against their opponents.
