Houston Dynamo 1-0 Los Angeles FC

Current streaks

Recent form

Houston Dynamo

Houston Dynamo are currently experiencing a poor run of form, sitting in 14th position in the league with just 2 points from their last 6 matches. The Dynamo have failed to secure a victory in their last 7 games, with their most recent outing resulting in a 3-1 defeat to Portland Timbers. Their defensive frailties are evident, having conceded 11 goals in 6 matches at an average of 1.83 per game, while struggling to find the back of the net themselves with only 4 goals scored (0.67 per game). A particularly concerning result was the 4-1 home defeat to Inter Miami, contributing to their -7 goal difference. Despite these struggles, the Dynamo have managed two clean sheets in their last 6 matches, both resulting in goalless draws. The team's tendency for high-scoring affairs is notable, with 67% of their recent matches seeing over 2.5 goals scored.

Los Angeles FC

Los Angeles FC's recent form has been underwhelming, with the team managing just two wins in their last six matches across all competitions. They are currently enduring a poor run in the league, having lost three of their last four Major League Soccer fixtures. LAFC's defensive frailties have been evident, conceding 11 goals in six games, with a particularly heavy 5-2 defeat against Seattle Sounders standing out as a high-scoring encounter. Despite their struggles, the team have shown they can be potent in attack, netting 10 goals in this period and recording an impressive 3-0 victory over Columbus Crew in the CONCACAF Champions League. However, their inability to keep clean sheets consistently, managing only two in six matches, has contributed to their current mid-table position of 8th in the league.

Recent home/away form

Houston Dynamo

Houston Dynamo's recent home form has been concerning, with the team currently on a four-match losing streak at their own ground. This run includes three consecutive Major League Soccer defeats, suggesting they are struggling to find their footing in competitive fixtures. The Dynamo have been particularly vulnerable defensively, conceding an average of 2.33 goals per game over their last six matches, whilst only managing to keep one clean sheet. Their home games have been high-scoring affairs, with 83% of matches seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring. A notable result was their 3-3 draw with New England Revolution in a friendly, showcasing their ability to find the net despite their defensive frailties. However, their most recent home match, a 4-1 defeat to Inter Miami, stands out as a particularly heavy loss, highlighting the team's current struggles in front of their own supporters.

Los Angeles FC

Los Angeles FC have been struggling with their away form recently, experiencing a challenging run of three consecutive defeats in competitive matches before their most recent victory against Sporting Kansas City. Their defensive record has been particularly concerning, conceding an average of 2 goals per game in their last six away fixtures. The standout match in this period was a high-scoring affair against Seattle Sounders, where LAFC suffered a heavy 5-2 defeat. Despite their difficulties, LAFC have managed to maintain a respectable goal-scoring record, averaging 1.5 goals per game on the road. However, their tendency to concede has led to 67% of their away matches seeing both teams score and over 2.5 goals, suggesting that LAFC's away games are often entertaining for neutral spectators.
