Our Vancouver Whitecaps vs Deportivo Saprissa San Jose Prediction
This is an extrremly tight game to call and the first leg demonstrated just how evenly matched these sides are. As such, we are steering clear of picking a winner and instead looking at the total goals markets. Defense is the big strength for both teams so we are expecting a cagey second leg with few clearcut chances. We would not be surprised to see a 0-0 stalemate or a narrow 1-0 win for either team, but we are taking a safer option and our prediction for Vancouver Whitecaps vs Desportivo Saprissa is: Under 2.5 goals.
