With brand new coach Chris Leitch in charge the San Jose Earthquakes may take this match more seriously than most. Seattle Sounders hold four US Open Cup trophies, but are using the early rounds to get younger players competitive matches and rest their aging veterans for an MLS season that’s gone sideways.
The winner hosts the winner of LA Galaxy versus Sacramento Republic.
