Minnesota United at PayPal Park against San Jose achieved the result they needed: their biggest win of the year, a resounding 5-1 victory on the road. This puts the team, coached by New Zealander Knowles, on the verge of a playoff spot.
The win against San Jose was all the more impressive considering their resilience after conceding a penalty in the 3rd minute. However, Pereyra leveled the score for Minnesota in the 10th minute, and Yeboah then netted a brace in the 40th and 44th minutes. The Italian, and indeed the entire Minnesota attack, were clinical in front of goal. Caldeira and Gonzales added two more goals to complete the rout.
Orlando City also won their last match via a comeback; they are thoroughly enjoying the football of one of the most talked-about signings in MLS in recent years, Antoine Griezmann. The experienced 35-year-old World Cup winner arrived in July and has already registered 4 goals and 2 assists with the Lions; for now, he seems to be in a league of his own compared to the rest of MLS.

Our Minnesota United vs Orlando City SC Prediction
Minnesota United, who a few years ago seemed unbeatable at Allianz Field, have had a rather lackluster performance there this year; they are second in their conference, but their home advantage is second; they hope that the recent thrashing will also revitalize their form at home.
Meanwhile, playing loosely, as if up front but tucked in a bit in the middle of the field, Griezmann adapted impressively quickly to Orlando City's system and always seems to be positioned in the best possible place on the pitch.
Our prediction for Minnesota Utd vs Orlando City is: Over 3.5 goals.
