The San Jose Earthquakes have won only one of their last seven MLS matches. Bruce Arena's team must be careful not to repeat the mistakes of the 2015 season, where they started strong but faded to the point of missing the playoffs. Even so, the Goonies are currently in third place and face a tough away game against Cincinnati next Saturday.

Against the LA Galaxy, San Jose could only manage a draw in their last match. They fell behind when Paintsil scored for the visitors, but in the second half, San Jose took control of the game and found the net through Roberts in a bizarre play. The pressure in the final minutes resulted in a penalty, which Timo Werner missed.

Meanwhile, FC Cincinnati, despite taking the lead as early as the 9th minute, were already trailing Columbus Crew before halftime. Thus, the Orange and Blue remain seventh, but this MLS season, they have yet to string together three consecutive wins.
