The interconference clash between Atlanta United and Houston Dynamo is this Saturday night, with both teams searching for three points. Why? Well, they are on the brink of the postseason, with the note that the guests are in a bit better position than the Five Stripes.
Before Betting on Atlanta United vs. Houston Dynamo
The Five Stripes have been extremely inconsistent lately, with two wins and losses apiece and one tie over the past five events. They would advance into the next stage of the US Open Cup by beating Charleston on the road, but only after the penalties.
Things are terrible for Atlanta when playing at home, losing the past five MLS events and not winning six straight. It’s the main reason why this team struggles in its playoff chase.
On the other hand, the Dynamo has been equally poor over the previous two months. Only two wins in the previous ten matches, three ties, and five defeats (among them the elimination from the US Open Cup) reveal that Houston’s form is fragile.
Now, when talking about efficiency, we’ve noticed that goals on both ends are pretty frequent here. That happened in six of Dynamo’s previous seven meetings.
Atlanta United vs. Houston Dynamo Head to Head
The last time these two units met was in 2019. That clash was in Atlanta, who was ruthless towards the rivals, beating them 5-0. In three direct meetings so far, we saw over 3.5 goals in each, Houston won 4-0 at home in 2018 and Atlanta 4-1 in 2017.

In our opinion, the safest bet is both teams netting. The respective defenses have been highly unstable, and we believe they can’t keep a clean sheet in this game. So far, that’s been an unreachable task for them, therefore we would pick both teams scoring.
