SJ Earthquakes vs Real Salt Lake Preview
San Jose Earthquakes will be looking to put an end to their five-game winless run when they face Real Salt Lake, having shared the spoils with Colorado Rapids (2-2) at the weekend. The Earthquakes have already secured their playoff berth, but they will still want to return to winning ways in front of their fans. San Jose have collected 1.80 points per game in their last five home matches, scoring 1.80 goals on average. Timo Werner is suspended, while Adimabua, Johnson, and Jones remain sidelined through injury.
Real Salt Lake, meanwhile, are fighting to secure a place in the play-in round, meaning that they will fight tooth and nail in the penultimate game of the regular season. The Royals recorded a 2-1 win over Los Angeles Galaxy in their latest outing, but they face a difficult test on the road. Morgan Guilavogui’s suspension is a significant blow, particularly given his recent form, and the visitors have conceded 1.60 goals per away game in their last five matches.
Despite San Jose’s recent struggles, their home record makes Home Win an interesting choice. Both sides have been involved in high-scoring matches, so Over 2.5 goals is worth considering, while both teams to score appeals given that 80% of San Jose’s recent home games featured goals at both ends.
This MLS match will be played on Saturday, 31 October 2026 at 21:00 in Avaya Stadium, San Jose.
