SAN DIEGO (Interstat) — A pivotal late-season MLS matchup arrives Monday as San Diego FC hosts Minnesota United in a contest with significant playoff implications.

The game, scheduled for Nov. 24, 2025, at Snapdragon Stadium, sees a surging San Diego squad looking to avenge a pair of lopsided losses to Minnesota from earlier in the season. According to Interstat’s game simulator, San Diego FC is projected to edge Minnesota United with a 2-1 final score.

San Diego (12-9-8) enters with momentum, coming off a 2-1 victory over the Portland Timbers on Oct. 26. Their offense has been potent, scoring four goals in each of their two previous matches before the Portland win.

Conversely, Minnesota United (10-11-8) is seeking to regain its footing after a scoreless draw with the Seattle Sounders on Oct. 27. Their form has been inconsistent, with a 1-3-2 record in their last six league matches.

The head-to-head history, however, heavily favors the visitors. The two teams met in a bizarre doubleheader on Sept. 13, 2025, with Minnesota winning both games by identical 3-1 scores, home and away. Prior to that, San Diego secured a 4-2 victory in Minnesota on June 14.

This match will be a test of San Diego’s improved form against a Minnesota side that has recently had their number. A win for San Diego could solidify their playoff positioning, while Minnesota desperately needs three points to keep its postseason hopes alive.
