Prediction: 1-1
Minnesota United
Houston Dynamo and Minnesota United take on each other at PNC Stadium on Sunday morning. Houston Dynamo quickly bounced back from a 3-1 loss to Austin, with the team beating San Jose Earthquakes at the weekend, and, no doubt, they are high on spirits ahead of Sunday’s clash. The Dynamo aim to move closer to the playoffs berth, and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach against Minnesota United.
Paraguay international Carlos Sebastian is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute in the last league match, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team. The Loons, on the other hand, did well to beat DC United at the weekend to cement their spot in top seven. Minnesota United, though, have already suffered five defeats on the road this season, which is probably the main reason why the share of spoils is on the horizon. All Arriaga, Hansen, Dotson, Metanire, and Weah are injured for the away team.
