Just a a point separates these two clubs in the Western Conference. Where they are positioned though only one team is likely to make it the playoffs. In the second half these games are that much more meaningful.
San Jose Earthquakes
The Earthquakes have a quick turnaround after being spanked by NYC Red Bulls 5-1. Prior to that result they had been in pretty good form for the past month.
The Earthquakes are among a few teams that are pretty successful despite anemic offences. Only two players have more than 2 goals this season and one is Jahmir Hyka with 3. The other is Chris Wondolowski. The longtime MLS vet has 8 goals, matching his pace from a year ago. He has led the team in scoring for 7 straight seasons but could really use some help.

These teams played to 1-1 draw back in April. In fact three of the last four meetings between the two have had that exact score. The lone outlier was a Seattle win, 2-0, last season. The Sounders were definitely the better squad a year ago.
Seattle Sounders
The Sounders are in pretty good form right now. They have not lost an MLS regular season contest in over a month as they look to get back into the playoffs to defend their 2016 title. They are on a quick turnaround too but they won earlier in the week defeating DC United 4-3.
The win was to be expected but the Sounders needed to come back from a three goal deficit to get it. You can easily argue that the Sounders should have never found themselves in that position against MLS’ weakest squad but nevertheless they pulled off quite the comeback.
Cristian Roldan scored the game winner after returning from international duty. He is young in his MLS career but based on the results so far it is looking like he will set a new mark for goals in a season. His youth and pace means they are not forced to relay on veteran Clint Dempsey as much.

Seattle should feel comfortable at home for this one in front of their great fans. If they are going to make a move in the Western Conference then building off that exciting win over DC seems like a good place to start.
Free San Jose Earthquakes vs. Seattle Sounders MLS Prediction:
The Earthquakes have fly back across the country for this one. Coming off an embarrassing loss they should be focused but will that be enough to get a road victory. I don’t like their chances.
