8th takes on 10th in the MLS Western Conference on Saturday evening, as the San Jose Earthquakes host the Houston Dynamo at PayPal Park. San Jose are currently on a four game unbeaten run, but will have been disappointed to have only recorded a 0-0 draw in New England last weekend. Colombian striker Cristian Arango has been the Earthquakes' main man so far this season, with nine goals in 14 games, including three in his last four starts.
Houston are also in good form, thanks to victories in their previous two games. Last week's 0-2 victory in Dallas was especially impressive, as they had to withstand a huge amount of first half pressure from the home team, before second half strikes from Jack McGlynn and Griffin Dorsey saw them claim all three points.

Our San Jose Earthquakes vs Houston Dynamo Prediction
These are two very evenly matched teams, which makes predicting a winner an extremely tough task. Houston have looked highly impressive in their last two games, but their overall form has been rather inconsistent and we are yet to be convinced that they will mount a serious playoff challenge. San Jose are also playing some excellent football at present, but again, their overall record shows that they struggle for consistency, especially at home. Taking all of that into account, our prediction for San Jose Earthquakes vs Houston Dynamo is: Draw and both teams to score.
