MLS Western Conference playoff race

Overview

The San Jose Earthquakes and FC Dallas are engaged in a high-stakes competition for Western Conference standings. Initially, the matchup was framed as a contest between third-place Dallas and fourth-place San Jose, with San Jose entering on a nine-match unbeaten streak.

Following a 3-0 victory for FC Dallas, the San Jose Earthquakes have faced a period of poor form, managing only one win in their last six matches. Coach Bruce Arena described the team’s situation as ‘critically important’ as they risk falling into wildcard slots rather than securing direct playoff qualification. The Earthquakes must navigate their final three matches to secure their postseason position.
