Houston Dynamo and Dallas meet often enough to be considered a familiar pairing, and they have traded wins back and forth. This time both come in with very close standings: Houston Dynamo sit 5th while Dallas are 3rd, and their points are not far apart. This match therefore carries weight for the table on both sides. Houston Dynamo have not found a win at all in their last five matches, but they are not an easy team to break down, having drawn two in a row and scored in the games they drew. Dallas, meanwhile, have won three of their last five and kept clean sheets in two of those, so their defence looks steadier than early in the season. But Dallas's away form still has question marks, as overall this season they have conceded more than they have scored. With Dallas focusing on solidity and waiting for counter-attacking moments, while Houston Dynamo have to be the side that opens up and attacks, the game will likely flow with the hosts holding more of the ball. But the chance of it finishing with few goals remains high, because both sides know each other well and are reluctant to leave gaps for the other.
