All eyes on San Jose Earthquakes as Los Angeles Galaxy travel to face San Jose Earthquakes.
A MLS meeting between San Jose Earthquakes (10th, 41 pts) and Los Angeles Galaxy (14th, 30 pts). Two sides with their own objectives and plenty to play for.
The lead strikers on both sides carry the narrative here. San Jose Earthquakes will lean on whoever's hot in front of goal, while Los Angeles Galaxy travel with the same brief: find a way past a back four that's been organised more often than not this season.
A razor-thin margin: San Jose Earthquakes at 0%, but the draw sits at 0%. Covering two of the three results is the sensible approach when the margins are this fine.
The bookmakers have priced this match fairly. Our model doesn't see a big edge in the match result market.
San Jose Earthquakes will be looking to make home advantage count (W5 D6 L6 at home). Los Angeles Galaxy's away record reads W0 D7 L10. The visitors need to start well or this could get away from them.
xG explained: Expected Goals measures chance quality. 1.5 xG = a side typically converts those chances into 1.5 goals. Outscoring xG = running hot, possible regression risk.
San Jose Earthquakes create chances worth 1.8 a game (and give up chances worth 1.5), leaving them +0.3 a game on the balance. Los Angeles Galaxy create 1.5 (giving up 2.0) for a balance of -0.5. The underlying numbers clearly favour San Jose Earthquakes. They're creating better chances AND giving up fewer good ones.
This doesn't look like a high-scoring one. San Jose Earthquakes average 1.8 goals per game and Los Angeles Galaxy manage 1.4. Combined that's just 3.2. We make it only 1% for three or more, so the lean is towards a lower-scoring game. Interestingly, the chances suggest more goals than the headline number. San Jose Earthquakes and Los Angeles Galaxy together create chances worth 3.3 a game. The low figure might be underrating the attacking quality here.
Neither side has much to play for in the grand scheme. no European places within reach and relegation isn't a concern. That can make for an unpredictable game with less pressure on both sides.
San Jose Earthquakes are all-out attack: 1.8 goals a game, but they leak 1.9 at the other end. They'll throw plenty at Los Angeles Galaxy, but there are gaps at the back for the visitors to get at. Neither defence inspires confidence. Both sides rarely keep clean sheets. Open, attacking football is on the cards.
