San Jose Earthquakes News Release

SAN JOSE, Calif. - The San Jose Earthquakes (0-4-2; 2 pt.) will face Nashville SC (3-2-1; 10 pts.) at PayPal Park today at 12:30 p.m. PT. The match will be broadcast nationally on TUDN, Univision and Twitter (English) and aired on the radio via KNBR 1050 (English) and 1370 KZSF (Spanish).

Today's match marks the first-ever meeting between San Jose and Nashville SC. Nashville, who joined Major League Soccer as an expansion team in 2020, competed in the Eastern Conference for their first two seasons before switching to the West to accommodate newcomers Charlotte FC in 2022.

San Jose will look to extend their two-game unbeaten streak at home. After erasing a late two-goal deficit vs. Columbus on March 5 (D 3-3), the Quakes repeated the feat vs. Austin on April 2 (D 2-2). Jeremy Ebobisse has scored three goals in the last two matches, while midfielder Jan Gregus ranks tied for second in MLS with four assists on the season.

Nashville is currently in the seventh place in the Western Conference despite playing all of their matches to date on the road. The team has enjoyed back-to-back wins over Columbus (1-0) and Sporting KC (2-1) to climb up the standings. Nashville is led by Panama National Team midfielder Anibal Godoy, formerly of the Quakes, and U.S. National Team defender Walker Zimmerman.
