San Jose Earthquakes will look to make it three wins in a row when they face Los Angeles FC on Sunday morning, with the hosts having revived their hopes of climbing to second place in the Western Conference. San Jose followed up a 2-1 win over San Diego FC with a 1-0 victory against Houston Dynamo, but they still have defensive concerns, conceding 2.60 goals per game across their last five home matches. Adimabua, Edwards, Jones, and Werner remain in the recovery room.
Los Angeles FC, meanwhile, are aiming to bounce back from a 3-1 defeat to Sporting Kansas City and retain second place in the standings. Delgado and Shaffelburg are both in line for recalls to the starting XI, while Denis Bouanga will be the man to watch after scoring his 13th goal of the season against Sporting. LAFC have struggled for consistency lately, but their recent H2H record against San Jose is impressive.
Considering that 87% of the H2H encounters went over 2.5 goals, with 61% producing at least four goals, we believe that there is big value in betting on Over 2.5 goals. Additionally, BTTS and Over 3.5 goals markets seem appealing.
This MLS match will be played on Sunday 20 September 2026 at 00:30.
