San Jose is unbeaten in its last three meetings with Toronto (W1 D2), with the last match ending in a 2-2 draw in February 2020. The Earthquakes ended a three-match losing streak at Toronto on their last visit to BMO Field, winning 2-1 in May 2019.
Toronto FC’s 2-0 defeat to Seattle on Saturday was its eighth loss in its last 11 games (W2 D1) and its 10th loss of the season. The Reds have only had more losses at this stage of a season once in the club’s MLS history, losing 11 of their first 18 games in 2012.
San Jose picked up its fourth win of the season, beating the Fire, 2-1, on Sunday. All four of the Earthquakes wins this season have come at home, as they are one of three teams (Toronto, Colorado) without a road win in 2022 (D2 L6).
Toronto FC continued to climb an unwanted list on Saturday, with the 2-0 loss to Seattle marking the 26th straight match the Reds have conceded in, tied for the sixth-longest streak in MLS history. Toronto has now kept just one clean sheet in its last 48 MLS matches dating back to May 2021.
Benjamin Kikanovic scored both goals in San Jose’s win over Chicago on Sunday, the first multi-goal game of his career. It was the eighth multi-goal game by an Earthquakes player this season, three more than any other MLS team this season.
