Houston Dynamo and Sporting Kansas City should bring one interesting West Conference matchup. The two sides play offensive-minded football, relying on a very sharp and aggressive approach, sometimes neglecting the defensive duties.

Before Betting on Houston Dynamo vs. Sporting Kansas City

The Dynamo snapped its four-game winning streak with back-to-back losses on the road, in Austin, 3-0, and Seattle vs. Sounders, 1-0. They now head back home to Texas, where this unit posted very good results. Houston won the last four events at its Shell Energy Stadium, netting 14 goals (three games with four hits exactly).

As mentioned, the Dynamo is frequently involved in high-scoring affairs, with eight of their previous ten events ending with three or more goals. Amine Bassi is the top striker with eight goals scored so far, and three assists. 

Meanwhile, Sporting entered a period of shaky and inconsistent performances after several excellent displays in June. After three events in a row in which Peter Vermes’ crew couldn’t triumph, they finally broke that cold streak by beating the Vancouver Whitecaps at home, 3-0.

It was their seventh meeting in recent nine with three or more goals and seventh in the latest 10 with both teams netting. However, when playing away from Kansas City, Sporting is very bad, having only one victory in the MLS since the year began.

The Dynamo will attack, that’s for sure, as they consider themselves the favorites here and a better unit than the guests. SKC doesn’t have any pressure upon their back and comes into this event relaxed, wanting to compete with the conference foes. All this, combined with the offensive-minded mentality, creates an excellent environment for a high-scoring meeting.
