San Jose Earthquakes' 2026 Major League Soccer Campaign

San Jose Earthquakes enjoyed a robust 2026 campaign in Major League Soccer, finishing a respectable second with 32 points from 15 matches. Their record was impressive: ten wins, two draws, and only three losses. Notably, their attack was potent, netting 34 goals while conceding a modest 15, resulting in a positive goal difference of 19.

The Earthquakes showed a slightly better form on the road, securing six wins away compared to four at home.

San Jose Earthquakes 2026 Season Form

San Jose Earthquakes have enjoyed a generally steady campaign in Major League Soccer's 2026 season, currently sitting second in the table with 32 points from 15 matches. Their record of ten wins, two draws, and three losses suggests a side that tends to secure victories rather than settle for draws, dropping more points through draws than defeats.

The team’s form is not characterised by long winning streaks, as no significant win streak is recorded. However, their ability to win on the road (six wins away compared to four at home) shows a commendable resilience away from home. Defensively, conceding just 15 goals across 15 games, with five clean sheets, underpins a solid backline that complements their attacking output of 34 goals. Overall, San Jose's season shape is one of consistent performance with occasional hiccups rather than streaky or erratic results.

San Jose Earthquakes: Home and Away Performance Analysis

The San Jose Earthquakes have shown a curious split in their 2026 Major League Soccer campaign. At home, they have netted 16 goals while conceding just 6, managing three clean sheets in 7 matches. Away from home, however, they've been slightly more prolific with 18 goals but have also been more porous, conceding 9 and keeping only two clean sheets.

This contrast suggests a team comfortable asserting control and defensive stability on familiar turf, while adopting a more attacking but slightly riskier approach on the road. Their six away wins compared to four at home further underline their ability to grind out results away, even if defensively that means being a bit more open. Overall, a balanced side with a subtle tactical tilt depending on the venue.
