With the recurring inconsistency and a leaky defense, 2025 has been a detrimental season for Houston Dynamo with just enough moments to give hope. Sitting 14th in the Western Conference and with their 12-game cycle accommodating just two wins, it is indeed alarming for a side that invested so heavily in transfer activities. Their latest outing has again offered a level of insight into their self-destruction; in a 3-1 home loss against Seattle Sounders, Femi Awodesu was sent off early on, leaving Houston 10 men for over 50 minutes, a full-on torment for the visitors, led by Albert Rusnák, who duly scored twice (www.sofascore.com). Felipe Andrade had scored on his debut in the recent U.S. Open Cup tie, but even he couldn't prevent the defensive collapse in MLS play.

Interestingly, Houston have shown their teeth early in games, scoring first in five of the last seven matches, and have been slightly better at home (WWDWL). On the other hand, having conceded in three straight and five of their last seven games seeing less than 2.5 goals, their lack of finishing has also been told (www.sofascore.com). Off the pitch, Houston made history with a cash deal for Jack McGlynn from Philly for a homegrown player. They also signed Duane Holmes, who is currently recovering from injury, and saw star Coco Carrasquilla move to Pumas in a record transfer.

🔖 Expected Lineup: Bond; Bartlow, Dorsey, Awodesu, Steres; Bassi, Artur, McGlynn; Raines, Lingr, Ponce (www.football-lineups.com). 

⛔️ Out: Erik Sviatchenko, Jimmy Maurer, A. Tarbell, N. Quiñones, L. Ennali, D. Holmes (www.besoccer.com). 

👤Head coach: Ben Olsen

Minnesota United is red-hot at the moment, holding onto the second position within the Western Conference, standing on six wins, four draws, and just two losses. In their last outing, they asserted themselves with a 4-1 victory over Inter Miami. It was Bongokuhle Hlongwane, Anthony Markanich, and Robin Lod who each found their way onto the scoresheet, in addition to an unfortunate own goal (www.sofascore.com). It was Minnesota's first-ever win over Miami and third win in a row; with just two goals allowed during those three matches, Minnesota looks balanced, composed, and deadly on the counter.

What draws particular attention is their away form: DWDWW in five road matches so far this season. Consequently, it is something of an advantage for them on this trip to Houston. Discipline-wise, they have been quite orderly, with most of their matches concluding with under 4.5 cards: six in their last eight (www.sofascore.com). The addition of experienced veteran Julian Gressel is a welcome one, bringing with it not only precious squad depth but also a winning mentality. Having played 245 MLS matches since 2015, with two MLS Cups and even last year's Supporters' Shield already to his name, Gressel should assist them in closing down defensively as well as going forward.

There were additional social media-related shenanigans after the big match, with a cheeky post mocking Inter Miami's pink kits. Beckham himself responded to that post. Naturally, such an uproar only elevates the rising confidence in Minnesota. They have begun winning with attitude. 

🔖 Expected Lineup: St. Clair; Markanich, Romero, Boxall, Díaz; Harvey, Pereyra, Trapp; Lod, Hlongwane, Oluwaseyi (www.football-lineups.com). 

⛔️ Out: Owen Gene, Hassani Dotson, Kipp Keller (www.besoccer.com). 

👤Head coach: Eric Ramsay

Minnesota United have clearly dominated the fixture in recent years. In their last 10 meetings, the Loons have won 7, with Houston winning only 2 and one game ending in a draw. The last time these teams met, they played to a 1-1 draw, and Minnesota have remained unbeaten in the last three H2Hs. After conceding in three straight games against Minnesota, 5 of the last 7 meetings have gone over 2.5 goals. These meetings also constitute some corner-bounding action, going over 10.5 corners in 6 of the last 8, while on the disciplinary side, there have been under 4.5 cards shown 8 out of 10 times (www.sofascore.com).

  • Under 4.5 cards was shown in 8 of the last 10 encounters (www.sofascore.com).
  • Houston conceded in 3 straight games vs Minnesota (www.sofascore.com).

Minnesota United seem to have all the elements working in their favor. With an ability to score away from home and recent prolific form, it would be tough for Colorado to mar a plausible penetration. According to our historical data, Minnesota United is poised to exploit Houston’s inconsistencies and defensive loopholes while they continue to suffer the rebuild. Houston is still rebuilding and has had key injuries. On the other hand, Minnesota seemed settled and very confident. A controlled game with a probable Minnesota victory should be anticipated, and yet, Houston scoring first could hardly be ruled out; after all, they have made a habit of starting well this season.

🏅 My prediction for the match is Minnesota United to Win or Draw + Over 1.5 Goals with a coefficient of 1.93 odds on 1xbet
