Expert Betting Tips
The balance tilts towards a Houston Dynamo win and that is no surprise at all. At the rate of San Jose’s deteriorating form, it is only usual to bet against them in any match. Despite Houston Dynamo not playing such a glamorous style, they are still the favorites to win this game and that’s fair. The h2h shows this fixture had been exciting in the past and both sides have managed to bag a goal or two in those encounters, and Houston Dynamo is undoubtedly the dominant force with 13 wins in the last 20 meetings. However, there’s a tendency we could see a tight affair with maybe a goal or two at most because both clubs are not really at their finests form at the moment.
