Vancouver Whitecaps
The Vancouver Whitecaps are in red-hot form, posting a 4-1 record in their last five games in MLS. This has moved them into fourth place in the Western Conference, eight points off the top spot with two games in hand. The Whitecaps boast a strong attack, failing to score in only four of their 23 games in the league this year. They are also tough to beat at home, winning their last three home matches, and boast a perfect record against the Dynamo in Vancouver. The home team's attack will be led by in-form striker and former Dynamo player Fafa Picault, who netted the winner late in their last game on Wednesday.
If we do a great job and win, I think it's a huge statement to tell everyone we are a top-four team, and we are not there accidentally but because we deserve it. I think that should be one of the things that ignite us for a good performance because one of our criticisms is that we're a good team, but we botch the important games.
Houston Dynamo
Houston Dynamo have traditionally struggled against Canadian opponents away but may be heading across the border this time round, buoyed by their recent form and steely defense. With many of their wins decided by a single goal, Ben Olsen's Dynamo is showing grit and know-how to get over the line. Already five points better than last year, they currently sit eighth in the Western Conference and are looking to climb the table with a victory over the Whitecaps. The Houston Dynamo are in good form, having lost just one of their last nine matches. But they arrive in Canada after returning to winning ways following a run with no victories. Houston needed a late goal to beat the San Jose Earthquakes in midweek.
