The Houston Dynamos host Austin FC at the Bbva Compass Stadium on Saturday, with the home side looking to move to the top of the MLS Western Conference table. The Dynamos have won four of their last five games, and are now just two points behind the league leading LA Galaxy. Remarkably, Houston are the second lowest scorers in the Conference with just 9 goals in 7 games. Their success thus far has been built on a rock solid backline, which has conceded just 7 times, the joint lowest in MLS. Austin are currently ranked a lowly 21st in the league, with their only two wins coming against the bottom two sides in the Conference (Dallas and San Jose). 

Surprisingly, Austin holds the edge in previous encounters between the teams, winning three of their five matchups, including a 3-0 victory the last time the two teams met. Houston have two wins against Austin, both of which have been on home territory.

Our Houston Dynamo vs Austin FC Prediction

However you look at this, Houston are comfortably the stronger team. They are in better form, have a vastly superior defence and the all-important home advantage. The oddsmakers clearly agree and have them priced at just 1.69 to claim all three points. However, the Dynamos are struggling to find the back of the net, so we don't think they will run away with it here. That being said, it is hard to make a case for Austin getting anything from the game, so our prediction for Houston Dynamos vs Austin FC is: Houston to win and under 2.5 goals, 4.09 at FanDuel.

Prediction:

 

Houston to win, under 2.5 goals
