California rivals clash today, August 20, when San Jose Earthquakes welcome Los Angeles FC to PayPal Park in Week 26 fo the 2022 MLS regular season. Here, you will find all the essentials about the game, such as the preview, predictions, and odds. To watch it in the US, tune in on fuboTV (free trial).

LAFC head into this game still in control of the Western Conference standings with 57 points after 25 games. In fact, Steve Cherundolo’s game could already secure a playoff berth this weekend if they avoid defeat. However, they could also clinch a spot even if they lose, depending on other results.

The visitors’ fantastic moment contrasts with San Jose’s poor campaign. The Quakes are 13th in the West with 24 points. Better things might be on the horizon as they hired Luchi Gonzalez for the 2023 season, but in the meantime, interim coach Alex Covelo has to try and finish the year as strongly as possible.
