Prediction: 2-1
Minnesota United
Sunday’s football match at BBVA Compass Stadium pits together Houston Dynamo and Minnesota United, the two teams who are eyeing a place in the play-offs. Houston were not into action at the weekend in MLS, with the team suffering a 2-1 loss to Monterrey in a friendly. The Dynamo are a real force to be reckoned with at home and seeing that Minnesota United do not seem to be on top of their game at the moment, we are tempted to put our money on Wilmer Cabrera’s troops. The Loons are on a six-game losing run on the road in the Major League Soccer, which is probably the main reason why away win should not be considered. It has to be noted that Minnesota United conceded three goals per match in last six league fixtures. When the two teams met in the US Open Cup last month Houston Dynamo recorded a hard-fought 1-0 win over Minnesota United.
Highlighted Player (Romell Quioto):
Romell Quioto is a pacey winger who plays for both Houston Dynamo and the Honduras national football team. Quioto was born in Balfate (Honduras) on August 9, 1991 and he played for Union Ajax during his youth career. The Honduras striker started his senior career at Vida and it has to be noted that he scored 20 goals in 77 appearances in the league for the club.
In 2012 he was sent on loan to Polish club Wisla Krakow, but he played no more than nine games for The White Star in Ekstraklasa. Romell Quioto then took a step forward in his career as he signed a contract with famous Honduras club Olimpia. After scoring 38 goals in 96 league fixtures for the capital club the 180-cm-tall attacker decided to taste MLS football.
Quioto moved to Houston Dynamo in December, 2016 and he has been playing for the Major League Soccer club ever since. Speaking of his international debut, Romell Quioto received his first call-up for Honduras on February 29, 2012 for a friendly game against Ecuador.
Highlighted Team (Minnesota United):
Based in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul area, Minnesota United are a professional soccer club that will compete in the Western Conference in the Major League Soccer from 2017. The Loons will make their MLS debut against Portland Timbers on March 4, 2017 and, no doubt, they have big ambitions for the forthcoming season.
Minnesota United are the sixth team to join MLS from a lower division and they will welcome their rivals at TCF Bank Stadium. The capacity of the stadium is 52.525 and it was opened in September, 2009. Bill McGuire is the club’s owner and he is on a quest to turn Minnesota United into a top-table side in the Western Conference.
Adrian Heath will be in charge of the club in the 2017 season and it has to be noted that the English tactician used to train the likes of Manchester City, Everton, Aston Villa and Espanyol in the past. You should know that the club was founded on March 25, 2015.
