Minnesota United are in seventh place in the MLS Western Conference standings and have been inconsistent this season. The home side eased past Los Angeles Galaxy last weekend and will want a similar result in this match.

Minnesota United vs Houston Dynamo Prediction
Houston Dynamo have been shockingly poor in the MLS this season and have won only two of their last 19 matches this season. The away side has struggled this season and cannot afford another debacle this weekend.
Minnesota United made a strong statement of intent against Los Angeles Galaxy last weekend and have an impressive squad. The hosts are the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.
Prediction: Minnesota United 2-0 Houston Dynamo
