The San Jose Earthquakes must win and have Colorado lose to gain a place in the MLS Cup Playoffs, and they'll need to score at least 13 goals when they meet FC Dallas on Saturday afternoon at Buck Shaw Stadium. The Quakes are coming off a scoreless draw at the LA Galaxy last weekend. FC Dallas have been officially eliminated from postseason consideration, but are coming off a 2-0 win against Seattle Sounders FC last weekend in their home finale. The referee for the match will be Geoff Gamble, with Craig Lowry and Eric Proctor as assistant referees. The Quakes have several players who are one yellow card away from suspension, including Victor Bernardez, Sam Cronin, Clarence Goodson, and Chris Wondolowski. In their last meeting, the Earthquakes got off to a flying start with two goals inside the first 16 minutes, but FC Dallas made an immediate response and eventually earned a 2-2 draw. The Quakes have won two of the four home meetings since FC Dallas last won in Santa Clara in 2009. The teams are meeting for the third time this season, with FC Dallas winning 1-0 in Frisco on May 25 and the teams drawing 2-2 on Aug 24. The Quakes' coach, Mark Watson, will be looking to improve his team's chances of making the playoffs with a win against FC Dallas. The match will be played at 2:30 p.m. PT on Oct 26, 2013, and will be broadcast on NBCSN. The Earthquakes will need to be careful not to pick up any more yellow cards, as several players are already on warning. The team will also need to score multiple goals to have any chance of making the playoffs. The Quakes' fans will be hoping for a big win to keep their team's playoff hopes alive.
