SJ Earthquakes vs Houston Dynamo prediction, odds and how to watch

SJ Earthquakes dominated possession, created seven big chances, and left Dignity Health Sports Park with nothing. LA Galaxy converted one of their ten shots and held firm. The numbers tell one story; the result tells another.

Houston Dynamo claimed a composed 1-0 victory at Vancouver Whitecaps, converting their single shot on target while Vancouver's 17-shot performance returned nothing. The result is a coaching lesson in defensive shape and clinical counter-attacking.

SJ Earthquakes have won once in their last ten MLS matches and conceded thirteen goals in their last five alone. Portland Timbers arrive with the form and the attitude to punish them.

Houston Dynamo have conceded just twice in their last five MLS matches and they host a Sporting KC side that has lost four of their last five. This one looks settled before a ball is kicked.

Houston Dynamo carry one of MLS's most impressive home records into Sunday's clash with a Cincinnati side that cannot stop conceding, setting up a compelling tactical collision at Shell Energy Stadium.

SJ Earthquakes have not kept a clean sheet in their last five home games and are conceding at a rate that makes this Los Angeles FC visit look extremely uncomfortable. The structure of this matchup tells a clear story.

SJ Earthquakes have lost four of their last five at home and conceded sixteen goals in the process. Houston Dynamo arrive in form and know exactly how to hurt them.

San Diego have turned Snapdragon Stadium into a difficult place to visit this season, and SJ Earthquakes arrive on Thursday having failed to keep a single clean sheet in their last ten matches. The structural problems travelling north are significant.
