We should be in for a thrilling MLS match as Houston Dynamo take on LA Galaxy. Dynamo is looking to push their claim for a CONCACAF Champions Cup Round One qualification place and is in a good position to do so. A win against Galaxy could see them reach sixth in the overall MLS standings and potentially the top of the Western Conference. LA Galaxy has endured a poor season so far. The G's has won just five from their 19 games so far. Their only win in their last games came in a friendly against CF America. 

Away from home, though, the Galaxy hasn't done too badly. They've won three and drawn three of their 9 away fixtures, it's their poor form at home that sees them languishing in 21st place in the overall standings. This game away at La Naranja, however, is a tough proposition.

The odds are heavily in favor of the home side, and we can't really disagree. They've not conceded in three games and they're up against a side who has trouble finding the back of the net. For our pick, we're predicting a comfortable home victory for Dynamo.

Houston Dynamo - Los Angeles Galaxy Key Points

  1. Dynamo hasn't conceded a goal in any of their last three games

Our Houston Dynamo vs Los Angeles Galaxy Prediction

Galaxy's away form isn't too bad, considering they've been pretty poor generally. However, they're up against a side challenging for a Champions Cup qualifying place, as well as the opportunity to move top of the Western Conference. Galaxy tend to struggle scoring goals and they face a side who hasn't conceded in their last three. In addition, Dynamo has only conceded seven goals on home turf all season.

Our prediction for Houston Dynamo vs LA Galaxy is: Houston Dynamo to win in Shutout
