"As for the visitors, although San Jose might have been forced to settle for their own back-to-back 1-1 draws since opening May, the Earthquakes have firmly cemented their spot as one of the MLS' ultimate surprise packages. Embarking on what has been a remarkable start to proceedings, the Goonies have rightfully received a string of praise and they find themselves leading the chase at the top of the Western Conference standings."
Seattle travels to Lumen Field to host San Jose in an MLS matchup. Seattle drew 1-1 at home against San Diego and followed with another 1-1 draw away at Sporting KC. Seattle has been a strong contender for a Western Conference playoff spot, with only one defeat in the previous 12 matches across all competitions. The team recently completed a Champions Cup turnaround, winning 3-2 on aggregate against Tigres. San Jose has also produced consistent results, including back-to-back 1-1 draws in May, while remaining a surprise package leading the Western Conference. San Jose holds a three-point buffer and has momentum from a US Open Cup 4-2 home win over Minnesota.
