The Quakes are 5-0-1 at Avaya Stadium so far this season
The recipe for making the MLS postseason: Win at home and draw on the road. Simple, right?
The San Jose Earthquakes have followed that recipe, almost to a tee, this season, and they sit in sixth place in the Western Conference as a result. Only one of the six play-off eligible teams in the West -- the Vancouver Whitecaps -- have dropped a home contest all season.
Six games played at Avaya Stadium, and the Quakes have collected 16 of a possible 18 points.
