Two teams at opposite ends of the Western Conference spectrum will battle it out on Saturday. After some improved performances, at least in a final-third sense, the SKC boys will be looking to avoid defeat for just the second time in six games. In contrast, the hosts will be looking to avoid defeat for the fifth time in six games. On paper, this is naturally a decent chance for the second-place hosts, but as good as they are at avoiding defeat, they've not exactly made a habit of winning in recent times.
At early odds of -133, 'Both Teams to Score' looks too nicely priced to ignore. A defensive joke for the entire campaign up until this point, the visitors don't keep things tight, but they have improved in the final third of late, so much so that the chances of them both scoring and conceding at Shell Energy Stadium can be considered as greater than the early market indicates.

Our Houston Dynamo vs Sporting Kansas City Prediction
Conceding is definitely something that you associate with SKC this season, but we may need to start thinking of the visitors as a team that scores goals as well now. They scored three goals for the third game running last time out, notching nine goals in their last three, so clearly, they'll turn up at Shell Energy Stadium feeling confident about their final-third chances.
In a defensive sense, it's virtually impossible to hold out any hope for the men on the road, who've conceded multiple goals in each of their last five, keeping zero clean sheets in Major League Soccer this season.
