MLS Preview: San Jose Earthquakes (7-7-7) at Los Angeles Football Club (9-6-5)

None of the 14 meetings between between the Los Angeles Football Club and the San Jose Earthquakes have ended in a draw, the second-most matches between teams with no draws in the post-shootout era (since 2000, D. C. United vs Atlanta United FC – 15). The home side has won each of the last eight meetings between Los Angeles Football Club and San Jose Earthquakes.

The Los Angeles Football Club has lost eight of the last 11 matches in all competitions (W2 D1) following a 2-1 defeat to the Los Angeles Galaxy on Tuesday. The Los Angeles Football Club had suffered only eight defeats in its previous 43 games (W26 D9) in all competitions from late May 2022 until this run began in late May this year.

The San Jose Earthquakes have won only two of their last 27 MLS away matches since the start of last season (D8 L17) as its 14 away points in that span is tied with Toronto FC for fewest in MLS among teams that have completed a full season. In that same span, the San Jose Earthquakes have collected 49 points at home (W13 D10 L5).

Carlos Vela has scored six goals in eight career matches against the San Jose Earthquakes, including a 95th-minute match-winning penalty when the sides met on May 20. Only Raul Ruidiaz (8) has scored more goals against the San Jose Earthquakes than Vela since Vela joined MLS in 2018.

Jeremy Ebobisse loves to play in Southern California, as he has scored 10 goals in 11 career matches against the Los Angeles Football Club (4 in 5) and the Los Angeles Galaxy ( 6 in 6). Ebobisse’s 10 goals are the most by a visiting player at Southern California teams (Los Angeles Football Club, Los Angeles Galaxy and Chivas USA)in MLS history.
