Command Analysis
Houston Dynamo FC
USACurrent form
In the regular championship, Houston Dynamo finished in fifth place and confidently earned a ticket to the playoffs. It should be noted that the Dynamo players played convincingly in home matches, losing only three times. In the first game against Seattle (0:0), they failed to show anything in attack - not a single shot on target. However, we will make an adjustment that they had to play from the 66th minute in the minority. The opponents did not score in a not very bright match, and the Sounders players were more accurate in the penalty shootout. Today, in the home game, Houston Dynamo has no right to make a mistake, since in case of a defeat, the team will end its performance.

8.70Tip and bets
Seattle Sounders, with its pragmatic football and reliable defense, is an inconvenient opponent for Houston Dynamo - in the last seven head-to-head matches, they have not managed to win even once. As the first game showed, nothing has changed much in the balance of power in this pair, during the entire match, the Dynamo players did not make a single shot on target, it is unlikely that it will be easier at home. We believe that the bookmakers are somewhat overestimating the hosts.
