The Seattle Sounders are traveling to Northern California to take on the San Jose Earthquakes in a Western Conference midweek clash. The Sounders are experiencing an uptick in form, coming off two straight wins against the Houston Dynamo and Vancouver Whitecaps. The win against Vancouver last weekend could be a turning point in the season, but they have to put in the work against a San Jose team they haven’t beaten in three straight meetings.
The Earthquakes are in a bit of a sticky situation given their absences and form. They’ve won just one game in their last six, but they’ve picked up some decent draws along the way, particularly against LAFC.
