Philadelphia Union vs Houston Dynamo Prediction: The visitors will be able to withstand Philadelphia's onslaught

One of the top teams in the Eastern Conference, Philadelphia will face Houston in their next MLS regular season game. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Philadelphia Union

Union has won four straight in the regular season and now leads the East, although the New York City side has a game in hand. Daniel Gazdag has scored in 3 games in a row. Julian Carranza and Mikael Uhre scored 13 goals, and Alejandro Bedoya also significantly contributed to the team's success. Stuart Findlay and Sergio Douglas left in the summer: the Scottish defender was a recent starter, but Sergio Douglas was rarely seen on the field. On the other hand, almost all the key players are in action, with only Jack Elliott's participation in the squad questionable.

The team beat Orlando 1:0 on the road in their last regular MLS game. Alejandro Bedoya was sent off due to a yellow card problem. Philadelphia had nine shots on goal and only once on target.

Houston Dynamo

Houston has been at the bottom of the Western Conference standings in recent years, sitting just 11th, five points behind the playoffs. The club tried to find a way out of the situation and agreed with Héctor Herrera back in the spring. The Mexican midfielder, who played for Porto and Atletico Madrid, made his debut for Dynamo Kyiv 3 weeks ago and failed to score any points. Houston is weak, so their current position in the standings is logical. The good news is all the strongest teams will be playing against Philadelphia.

They have only one win in their last six games. Last week, Houston played against Minnesota but lost (1:2). The Dynamo didn't sit back and took 22 shots on goal, but their opponent was ahead in shots per game. In the end, Houston had a slight chance to pull out a draw but failed.

Expert Betting Tips

The Philadelphia side hadn't shown tremendous attacking performance in the last two games, and in the home win against New England, they scored on penalties. Houston looked good against Minnesota, playing even better away than at home. So, they can withstand Philadelphia's onslaught. The hosts are among the best in the East in defensive play, and their performance will largely depend on how many chances they create.
