Current streaks

Recent form

Houston Dynamo

Houston Dynamo have shown inconsistent form in their recent matches, with only one win in their last six games. The team have struggled to find a winning streak, alternating between draws, losses, and a solitary victory. Their defensive record has been relatively solid, managing two clean sheets in this period, but they have struggled to convert draws into wins. The Dynamo's goal-scoring record is modest, averaging just one goal per game, while conceding slightly more at 1.33 goals per game. Their most recent match, a 2-2 draw against Colorado Rapids, was their highest-scoring game in this run, suggesting some improvement in their attacking prowess. Despite their mid-table position, Houston Dynamo's inability to string together consecutive wins has likely hindered their progress up the league standings.

Austin FC

Austin FC have shown impressive form in their recent matches, currently sitting second in the league with 16 points from 9 games. The team have been on a strong run, winning four of their last six matches, including a current streak of three consecutive victories. Their defensive prowess is particularly noteworthy, with four clean sheets in the last six games and conceding only one goal per game on average. However, their most recent away match against Vancouver Whitecaps resulted in a heavy 5-1 defeat, which stands out as an anomaly in their otherwise solid performances. Despite this setback, Austin FC have bounced back with a win against LA Galaxy, demonstrating resilience. The team's matches tend to be low-scoring affairs, with 67% of their recent games featuring under 2.5 goals, suggesting a focus on defensive stability.
