They took just nine shots, of which two were on target leading to an xG of 1.24. However, the Orange Crush distinguished themselves in passing, ending the game with an accuracy of 91% by completing a total of 500 passes. Guilherme Augusto, who took the joint-most shots (3), scored the lone goal of the game.
Houston Dynamo will have to make do without the services of Ibrahim Aliyu, who has been suspended. Felipe Andrade, Jimmy Maurer and Antonio Carlos are all injured.
Houston Dynamo FC predicted lineup vs Vancouver Whitecaps (4-1-4-1): Bond; Negri, Halter, Resch, Ennali; Artur; Augusto, Herrera, McGlynn, Bogusz; McGuire.

- Odds: -227 (20Bet)
- Correct score prediction: Vancouver Whitecaps 2-1 Houston Dynamo FC
Vancouver are expected to win. Their form at home has been impeccable this season, with eight unbeaten results in nine matches, including seven victories.

Vancouver Whitecaps vs Houston Dynamo FC Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Both teams to score
- Odds: -179 (20Bet)
When a battle between the top two teams of the division gets played out, goals are to be expected. Both these sides have scored plenty of goals in their respective campaigns – Vancouver (40) and Houston (28) – which means that this game will be no different.
History is witness: eight out of the last nine meetings between these clubs at Vancouver’s home venue have seen this prediction come true. Vancouver’s record at home is noteworthy: 22 goals in nine matches in this campaign. They will be the more aggressive of the two sides, since they average more than two goals per game at home this season.
