📋 Team News: Vancouver Whitecaps

It’s a low absenteeism rate, with just a single fitness concern for the Vancouver Whitecaps gaffer Jesper Sørensen to be concerned about from a near full-strength group of players. Ryan Gauld (Knee injury) will miss out.

It seems likely that Caps may well use a 4-3-3 system and select Yohei Takaoka, Édier Ocampo, Tristan Blackmon, Bjørn Inge Utvik, Sam Adekugbe, Pedro Vite, Ralph Priso-Mbongue, Sebastian Berhalter, Ali Ahmed, Brian White and Jayden Nelson.

📋 Team News: Minnesota United

Minnesota United manager Eric Ramsay has multiple availability issues to deal with. Kipp Keller (Hamstring injury) and Hassani Dotson (Meniscus injury) won’t be making appearances.

We reckon that Loons could decide to elect for a 3-4-2-1 lineup by sending out Dayne St. Clair, Jefferson Díaz, Michael Boxall, Nicolás Romero, Julian Gressel, Carlos Harvey, Wil Trapp, Anthony Markanich, Robin Lod, Joaquin Pereyra and Tani Oluwaseyi.

🔮 Prediction

Minnesota United will really need to work well to score against this Vancouver Whitecaps outfit who we think should score one, at least.

Therefore, we predict a good tussle with a 1-0 win for Vancouver Whitecaps at the end of the 90.

A close call.
