SAN JOSE, Calif. - The San Jose Earthquakes (7-8-6; 1.29 PPG) are hosting Los Angeles Football Club (9-7-4; 1.55 PPG) tonight at Earthquakes Stadium in their final home match of the regular season. The match kicks off at 8 p.m. and will be broadcast live on NBC Sports California, KNBR 1050 and 1370 KZSF.

The match was originally scheduled to be played on Sunday, Nov. 1 but was postponed due to three positive cases of COVID-19 within LAFC's player group last week.

Tonight marks the first home match for San Jose vs. LAFC since March 30, 2019, a span of 586 days. Both prior matches this year, as well as their most recent match in 2019, were all played at Banc of California Stadium in Los Angeles.
