San Jose Earthquakes vs LAFC

The 2024 MLS season may have gotten off to a rocky start for LAFC, but Denis Bouanga is rounding into form, with three goals in his last two games, including a dramatic stoppage-time winner vs. Portland in Matchday 11. The Black & Gold will look to ride that hot streak into Levi’s Stadium against the San Jose Earthquakes, a club also struggling to find themselves in the early parts of the campaign.

While LAFC sit fifth in the Western Conference on 15 points, the perennial powerhouse would love to return to the conference’s top four. They’ll face a tough crowd at Levi’s Stadium and a desperate San Jose side who’ve picked up just four points in 10 matches, including a 1-1 draw against Nashville SC last weekend.

The Earthquakes will likely debut DP No. 10 Hernán López, who arrived last week from Argentine top-flight side Godoy Cruz. The deal cost a reported club-record $6 million. Can López ignite an attack that also includes Jeremy Ebobisse, Amahl Pellegrino and Cristian Espinoza?

Inter Miami CF vs. New York Red Bulls

As expected, Lionel Messi is leading Inter Miami CF to the top of the Supporters’ Shield standings with a 6W-2L-3D record. The legendary Argentine No. 10 is also doing it in record-breaking form, practically making history on a game-by-game basis.

Messi’s latest stellar outing (2g/1a) led the Herons to their third straight win: a 4-1 rout at the New England Revolution with his second Man of the Matchday-worthy performance in three weeks.

But Miami have a significant injury list and some defensive issues. Arguably no team this season has exploited those issues better than New York, who cruised to a 4-0 blowout win over the Messi-less Herons at Red Bull Arena back in Matchday 6 behind a Lewis Morgan hat trick.

This time, RBNY will have a healthy Messi to deal with, as well as a hostile crowd at Chase Stadium. But Sandro Schwarz’s side is undefeated in six and looking to keep pace with the Herons atop the Eastern Conference standings.

Real Salt Lake vs. Sporting Kansas City

Sporting KC’s home struggles are well-documented, dropping 14 points from winning positions this year – more than any other team in the league. To add to their woes, Peter Vermes & Co. are also winless in four after losing 2-1 at Minnesota United FC last week.

That’s the bad news. Now the even worse news: Up next is a visit to red-hot Real Salt Lake.

Tops in the Western Conference behind an undefeated six-match run (4W-0L-2D), RSL have also won two straight, most recently handing the Philadelphia Union their first loss of the season.

Cristian Arango, a Landon Donovan MLS MVP frontrunner, is the main catalyst for Salt Lake. The Colombian striker has been brilliant this season, producing 8g/7a with a goal contribution in all but two games.
