Following three straight ties and no win in six league games, the Houston Dynamo will play a second straight home game on Saturday evening, when they'll welcome Minnesota to Shell Energy Stadium. In front of their own fans, the hosts have not thrived of late, winning only one of their last five home games. On the road, the Loons have won only one of their last eight MLS games, but they do score lots of goals, so they should fancy themselves to compete here.
If you're interested in betting on this fixture and are looking to be pointed in the direction of an interesting angle, consider 'Minnesota to Score Over 1.5 Goals' at odds of +135. Given what we've seen from the two teams in recent weeks, with the visitors thriving offensively and with the hosts struggling at the back, odds of +135 look quite generous indeed.

Our Houston Dynamo vs Minnesota United Prediction
Neither team has been defending well of late, but the hosts have looked particularly open at the back, so an in-form Loons offense really could do a little more damage than the early market expects. Let's face it, we are talking about a team that scored three goals last time out, while Cameron Knowles' men also scored multiple goals last time out on the road, hammering in 14 goals in their last five away games.
If we consider the strong offensive form of the men on the road in conjunction with the terrible defensive efforts of the hosts, then 'Minnesota to Score Over 1.5 Goals' should likely be priced closer to +115 than +135. Take the value while it's available.
Our Houston Dynamo vs Minnesota United Pick: Minnesota United to Win.
