San Jose Earthquakes News Release
SAN JOSE, Calif. - The San Jose Earthquakes (5-7-8; 23 pts.) face the rival LA Galaxy (11-7-2; 35 pts.) at Dignity Health Sports Park tonight at 7:30 p.m. PT. The California Clasico will be broadcast live on ESPN2, ESPN Deportes, KNBR 1050 and 1370 KZSF.
San Jose is on a nine-match unbeaten streak, the longest active streak in Major League Soccer. It marks the Quakes' longest such run since 2012. San Jose will benefit from the return of leading scorer Chofis, who missed last match to suspension, but the team will be without defender Nathan after he received a red card on Tuesday. The Earthquakes hold a 2-2-1 record in their last five matches vs. the Galaxy.
The Galaxy are in third place in the Western Conference. LA is 3-1-1 in their last five matches despite scoring just one goal in each of their last four games. The Galaxy fell to the Colorado Rapids 2-1 at Dignity Health Sports Park on Tuesday night, snapping a four-match unbeaten streak. After tonight, LA will have played five of their last six matches at home.
