Prediction: 3-3
Houston Dynamo
After suffering a heavy 4-0 loss to San Jose Earthquakes, Austin will be aiming to return to winning ways when they take on Houston Dynamo on Sunday evening. Austin have been anything but impressive in their MLS debut season, with the team sitting in the ultimate position ahead of the visit of Houston. Considering that the Verde have been struggling in front of goal of late, we are not tempted to put our money on the hosts.
All Besler, Hoesen, Schoenfeld, Segura, and Sweat are sidelined with injuries. The Dynamo, on the other hand, missed out on a place in the playoffs as they are 13 points behind top seven. Since both sides will be with guards down in Sunday’s clash, we are tempted to put our money on over 2.5 goals. As for the visiting team, all Baird, Bajamich, Jones, and Lemoine are out of contention through injuries.

Houston Dynamo is an American professional soccer club owned by Jake Silverstein, Gabriel Brener, Ben Guull and Oscar De La Hoya, who is considered one of the greatest boxers of all time.
BBVA Compass Stadium is Dynamo’s home ground and the capacity of the venue is 22.039. Houston Dynamo won back-to-back MLS Cup trophies (2006, 2007), with the team beating New England Revolution in each of the two title games. It has to be noted that Houston finished the 2011 and the 2012 seasons as runners-up.
In 2008 the Dynamo made it to the North American SuperLiga final, but this time out their old rivals New England Revolution proved to be a big catch for the BBVA Compass Stadium outfit.
