Few rivalries compare to the intensity of the clash between San Jose Earthquakes and LA Galaxy. This Sunday marks a historic moment: the 100th encounter between these giants of American soccer, known as the California Clásico.
The Earthquakes, following a bitter home defeat against the Colorado Rapids, are hungry for redemption. The recent loss has left Quakes fans thirsty for a win, and nothing would be sweeter than claiming three points against their arch-rival, LA Galaxy. With an attack led by Jeremy Ebobisse and the return of Preston Judd to Carson, the San Jose team is eager to challenge recent history and surprise the skeptics.

LA Galaxy enters the fray buoyed by a convincing away victory against the Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
