Underperforming Major League Soccer powerhouse LA Galaxy will be looking to return to winning ways when they meet out-of-sorts San Jose Earthquakes at Dignity Health Sports Park.
A 3-2 defeat in a mouth-watering all-LA showdown against Los Angeles last time out has left LA Galaxy at a single triumph from four MLS fixtures (D1, L2). A rotten patch of form has seen Greg Vanney’s men let eighth-placed Seattle Sounders reduce the gap to a single point in an enthralling Western Conference playoff run-in. Interestingly, just one of Galaxy’s ten home league matches this season has ended as a draw (W5, L4), highlighting the hosts’ unpredictability. Adding to this sentiment, they have alternated between losing (4) and winning (3) across their last seven MLS home meetings with San Jose. Five of those seven H2Hs have featured 3+ total goals, underlining the potential for a high-scoring theme.
In the meantime, San Jose Earthquakes’ disappointing spell of form has seen them pick up just one win from their last six league outings (D3, L2). But after drawing a blank in back-to-back MLS fixtures, the ‘Quakes’ have netted precisely twice in their last two league matches, showing noticeable signs of improvements up top. They’ll need their frontline to be at its best if they are to post their first MLS win in ten games on hostile turf this season (D3, L6). Indeed, a lack of defensive prowess has seen Landon Donovan’s side concede an alarming average of 2.22 goals per MLS travel thus far.
