Current streaks

Recent form

Houston Dynamo

Houston Dynamo's recent form shows a team that has been consistently competitive, with only one loss in their last six games. They've demonstrated strong defensive capabilities, conceding just 0.5 goals per game and keeping three clean sheets during this period. The standout performance was a 4-1 victory over Real Salt Lake, which was their highest-scoring game in this stretch. Interestingly, 83% of their recent matches have seen under 2.5 goals, indicating a trend towards low-scoring affairs. Despite their solid form, including three wins in six games, they find themselves in 6th position in the league, suggesting a tight competition in the upper half of the table. The team's ability to avoid defeat, with only one loss in this period, has been crucial to their current standing.

New England Revolution

The New England Revolution's recent form has been inconsistent and largely disappointing. In their last six games, they've managed only one win, which came in their most recent match against Nashville SC. The team has struggled defensively, conceding 13 goals in these six games (an average of 2.17 per game) and keeping only one clean sheet. Their offensive output has also been lackluster, scoring just 5 goals (0.83 per game). A particularly concerning result was their 4-0 loss to Charlotte FC, which stands out as a high-scoring game and their heaviest defeat in this stretch. The Revolution have failed to score in three of these six matches, indicating offensive struggles. Their current 14th position in the league table reflects their mixed form, with the team needing to improve both offensively and defensively to climb up the rankings.

Recent home/away form

Houston Dynamo

The Houston Dynamo's recent home form shows a mixed performance with no clear winning or losing streak. Their last six home games resulted in 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses, demonstrating inconsistency. However, their defensive record is notable, conceding only 0.67 goals per game and keeping two clean sheets. The team's offensive output has been moderate, scoring 1.33 goals per game on average. There was one particularly high-scoring game against Real Salt Lake, which Houston won 4-1. Interestingly, 67% of their recent home games have seen under 2.5 goals, suggesting a tendency towards lower-scoring matches. Despite the varied results, Houston's goal difference remains positive at +4, indicating they've been more effective at scoring than conceding overall.

New England Revolution

The New England Revolution's recent away form has been particularly poor, with the team currently on a concerning three-game losing streak on the road. In their last six away matches, they've managed only one win, suffering five losses. This sole victory was a remarkable 5-0 triumph over CF Montréal, standing out as an anomaly in their otherwise struggling form. The team has been involved in several high-scoring games, notably the 5-1 loss to Philadelphia Union and the 4-0 defeat to Charlotte FC. Defensively, the Revolution have been struggling, conceding 16 goals in these six away games while only scoring 6, resulting in a -10 goal difference. Their inability to keep clean sheets (only one in six games) and the fact that 67% of these matches saw over 2.5 goals suggest a vulnerable defense coupled with high-scoring encounters.
