SAN JOSE, Calif. - The San Jose Earthquakes (3-1-0; 9 pts.) host Seattle Sounders FC (3-0-1; 10 pts.) in a top-of-the-table match tonight at PayPal Park in San Jose, presented by Fastmetrics. The match kicks off at 7:30 p.m. PT and will be broadcast live on NBC Sports Bay Area, KNBR 1050 and 1370 KZSF.

Tonight's match pits the top two teams in Major League Soccer after four weeks, with just one point separating first-place Seattle and second-place San Jose. The Quakes have won three consecutive matches, outscoring opponents 9-3 during that span, while Sounders FC remain the only unbeaten team in the Western Conference.

The Earthquakes have had the MLS Player of the Week in back-to-back weeks in a single season for the first time since 2012, with 17-year-old Cade Cowell winning in Week 3 and 38-year-old Chris Wondolowski winning in Week 4. Wondolowski scored two goals as a second-half substitute last Friday to help the Quakes defeat previously unbeaten Real Salt Lake 2-1.

San Jose is 6-0-1 in their last seven matches at PayPal Park.
