Sat at the top of the Western Conference, Los Angeles look every inch the frontrunner for the MLS Cup come the close of the year.
A derby defeat in the U.S. Open Cup to the LA Galaxy may have shaken their faith a tad though, presenting a prime chance for them to come undone again.

It has been far from a classic campaign for the Earthquakes, but where there is a will, there is a way - and there are plenty of miles left to go in the season.
A U.S. Open Cup exit, like their hosts, however shows that they have plenty of work still to do to get on the right path.
Predicted San Jose starting XI: Marcinkowski; Marie, Agren, Calvo, Beason; Remedi, Espinoza, Yueill, Monteiro, Cowell; Ebobisse.
