Our prediction for this match: Houston Dynamo 2 - 2 FC Dallas
Houston Dynamo vs FC Dallas Preview
There will be fireworks when Houston Dynamo and FC Dallas face each other in the Texas derby at Shell Energy Stadium. The Orange Crush are desperate to end a five-game winless run and keep their Western Conference ambitions alive after a thrilling 3-3 draw with San Diego FC. Guilherme impressed with a brace in that encounter and will again be central to Houston’s attacking hopes. However, the Dynamo have struggled to make home advantage count, winning just 25% of their home matches in the supplied statistics.
FC Dallas travel south in much better spirits after edging Seattle 1-0, a result that strengthened their position near the top of the Western Conference. The Toros have enjoyed a productive spell, with their attacking output particularly impressive away from home. Although injuries to Farrington, Geovane Jesus and Julio Santos could limit their options, Dallas have enough quality to put pressure on a Houston defence that has been vulnerable in recent weeks.
With 70% of the previous 37 H2H meetings seeing both teams score, this betting option should be considered, alongside Over 2.5 goals and Over 3.5 yellow cards (Texas derby).
