Houston Dynamo vs. New England Revolution Match Analysis and Prediction

New England Revolution is set for a trip to PNC Stadium for a clash against Houston Dynamo in their 31 round of the Major League Soccer. Match day schedules for September 14 at 03:30 EAT.

Houston earned points in six of their opening seven games this season, but as in recent campaigns, they failed to sustain that early momentum, winning only five games since that solid beginning, and the Brazilian coach paid the price as he was sacked. Houston has only managed one victory at home, edging Los Angeles FC 2-1 at the end of August, the lone time in their last six matches played at PNC Stadium.

Houston Dynamo prepares for this game off the back off 0-0 MLS stalemate with Sporting Kansas City in their previous fixture. In that match, Houston Dynamo had 37% possession and 11 shots with three of them on target while Sporting Kansas City got 19 shots with six of them on target.

New England on the other hand is still in the hunt for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, trailing the Columbus Crew by three points, who have often been their own worst enemies. The Revs are winless in three straight road fixtures, having been outscored 8-3 over that stretch, though they have not lost a regular season affair in Houston since 2014.

New Eng. Revolution will seek to bounce back following 2-1 MLS defeat to New York Red Bulls in their previous outing. In that match, New Eng. Revolution managed 43% possession, four shots with one of them on target and a goal scored by Tommy McNamara (53′). New York Red Bulls got 12 shots with five of them on target and goals by Cristian Cásseres (58′) and Lewis Morgan (77′).
