Houston Dynamo vs Austin FC Prediction: Any team will win by narrow margin

Houston Dynamo can look ahead with hope for a positive result, as they welcome Austin for round 4 of the MLS campaign. The visitors were left disappointed, as they crashed out of the CONCACAF Champions league by failing to overturn the 3-0 goals they suffered in the first leg against Violette AC. Houston have lost two back-to-back games and another defeat will put them in a more desperate position, so a win here is a necessity for this team.
