In 2025, San Jose had a remarkable first half of the MLS season, followed by a slump that even knocked them out of the playoffs. They want to avoid that in 2026. For now, Bruce Arena's team sits second in the Western Conference, but they have already shown the first signs of slowing down, having won only one of their last five MLS matches before the World Cup break.
Even so, the long World Cup break helped San Jose; this match came two months after their most recent MLS game, a 3-1 away win against the Portland Timbers. Preston Judd scored a brace in that game, and he's currently fourth in the league's scoring charts with 11 goals. Because of this, the club offered him a contract extension this past month, which he signed, saying, "It's an honor to continue here; this club believed in me from day one."
Meanwhile, Orlando City is having a disappointing season; the Lions are under pressure to improve after suffering a 6-2 defeat in Cincinnati before the World Cup break.

Our San Jose Earthquakes vs Orlando City SC Prediction
San Jose is a very offensive team that allows possession and commits few fouls, but that's precisely what Orlando City needs to avoid right now. This year, the Lions' defense has been beyond atrocious; it's disorganized, conceding a staggering 44 goals in 15 matches.
At least Orlando hopes that their newly acquired star signing, French superstar, former Barcelona player, and World Cup winner Griezmann will inject energy into the team. The moment the Frenchman scores his first goal in an Orlando shirt, it will also be his 300th career goal at club level.
Our prediction for San Jose vs Orlando City is: Over 3.5 goals.
