Houston is the clear lean at home. The Dynamo have an 8-2-3 home record this season and have allowed just 1.15 goals per game overall, giving them a substantial defensive advantage. Their recent attack has cooled—only 0.8 goals per game across their last five—but a run of three draws in that span also reflects their ability to keep matches close. Sporting Kansas City’s season record is much weaker at 5-17-3, and they have conceded 2.52 goals per game. Their recent matches have featured plenty of scoring, but they also allowed nine goals across their last three. That defensive vulnerability makes it difficult to favor SKC away, though Houston’s recent low scoring leaves a meaningful chance of a draw.
