Just after an impressive July-August run, in which Houston Dynamo won five straight games without conceding a goal, they are now the ones struggling to find the net. They remain second in the conference but are winless in their last three MLS matches for the first time since April. On Wednesday, they prepare to host Real Salt Lake.

Houston Dynamo were held to a scoreless draw in their last match against San Jose; it was a somewhat lackluster game, but they also drew 0-0 against Charlotte at Bank of America Park. Once again, goalkeeper Bond was crucial in keeping a clean sheet for the Dynamo; he made a crucial save on a powerful shot from the edge of the box. Houston played with a man advantage for up to 25 minutes after a Charlotte player was sent off, but they couldn't capitalize and ended up with four players sent off.

In May of this year, Real Salt Lake defeated Houston Dynamo 3-0. It was a really even match, with very few scoring opportunities, and the deadlock wasn't broken until the second half.

Our Houston Dynamo vs Real Salt Lake Prediction

In their last outing, in Colorado, Real Salt Lake not only lost but also unusually failed to score in the defeat; previously, in the Leagues Cup quarterfinals, they had also failed to find the net.

Salt Lake will face an organized and diligent Houston Dynamo defense, but they will also have to break down goalkeeper Bond, who is in inspired form. Even so, the Texas team is indecisive in front of goal.

Our prediction for Houston Dynamo vs Real Salt Lake is: Over 2.5 goals.

Prediction:

 

Over 2.5 goals
