Get ready for soccer on St. Patrick's Day in San Francisco.

Tickets go on sale Saturday for a doubleheader of soccer matches featuring professional and international teams at AT&T Park on March 17.

The first match is between the San Jose Earthquakes and Houston Dynamo, who are facing off in a Major League Soccer regular season game.

Later that day, the under-23 teams from Mexico and Senegal will play in an international friendly match before each team begins Olympic qualifiers later this year.

A ticket pre-sale for the doubleheader starts at 10 a.m. Saturday for people with Visa cards at www.sjearthquakes.com/visa.

Tickets will then go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. Monday. Tickets can be purchased at www.tickets.com, at the AT&T Park box office between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Mondays through Fridays, at various Giant Dugout store locations or by calling (800) 225-2277.

In July 2011, AT&T Park hosted a soccer match between two top international club teams, Manchester United from the English Premier League and Club America from the Primera Division in Mexico.

Mexico's under-23 team also played a sold-out game at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum in 2008.
