Just over half of the season has been completed in North American Major League Soccer. There are still a relatively large number of games to go, but it looks like there will be a battle between Philadelphia and Los Angeles FC in the battle for Supporters Shield, the champions of the preliminaries.
Preliminary champion does not sound so exciting at first, but this position already entitles to participate in the CONCACAF Champions League, regardless of how far it goes in the playoffs afterwards. The incentive is there and therefore Los Angeles wants to continue to expand the lead in the overall table at the guest appearance in Houston.
43 points from 19 games are a yield that can be seen in the second year of existence of the LAFC. As a result, Los Angeles is not only the leader of the Western Conference, but is also the leader in the MLS with a lead of seven points. Against this background, it almost does not matter who you play against. Therefore, in the duel between Houston Dynamo and Los Angeles our forecast goes clearly towards an away win. The Texans from Houston, however, currently fighting for a place in the playoffs. Ranking seventh in the Western Conference would be enough, and that's where the Dynamos are right now.
However, things are still very close to this position and it is difficult at this time of the season to say where the journey for the team of Wilmer Cabrera is going. The bookmakers assume that against the LAFC a victory in the range of the possible lies. After all, lower odds on a home win are distributed. We disagree because before the kick-off between Houston Dynamo and Los Angeles we tend to a tip on an away win. In addition, we expect a relatively large number of hits, as soon as the attacking machinery of the guests gets rolling. The kick-off for the MLS game between Houston Dynamo and Los Angeles FC at the BBVA Stadium takes place on Friday night from Friday to Saturday
Houston Dynamo - Statistics & Current Form
The best times Houston Dynamo apparently already behind. In 2006 and 2007, the Texans won the championship title in the MLS. Since then, however, one often fell short of expectations. After all, they won the US Open Cup last season, but did not qualify for the playoffs in return. The post-season is the goal this year, and at the moment it looks like it will work out if it were not for the modest form of the past few weeks. Five of the last six games have lost the Dynamos. Thus, they have retired as defending champion in the Cup and have lost massive ground in the Western Conference.
At the moment, we would not assume that it will work with a place in the playoffs this season. This also means that in the match between Houston Dynamo and Los Angeles, we would probably neglect the odds of a home win, although the team of Wilmer Cabrera is still pretty good, at least at home. At home there was only one defeat in the last eleven games.
This may be the straw Houston is currently clinging to. Last weekend, the Texans were back on the road, and there was a 2: 3 defeat at the bottom in Cincinnati. After all, Houston has proven morality, because Cincinnati led after an hour 3-0. Rommel Quioto first reduced the penalty and when the home side drew 3: 2 by own goal, the Dynamos scented morning air. In the end it remained but at the next bankruptcy in a foreign stadium.
"We have already proven that we have a team that can compete with all the teams in the MLS. We only show it too seldom. "
Wilmer Cabrera
Wilmer Cabrera then seemed a bit baffled. The coach knows that his team can keep up with all the teams in the MLS, only it barely provides the proof in recent weeks. Maybe the coach will try it against the leaders with a new formation or tactic. After all, he can tinker until the kick-off, because apparently all players are available against the LAFC. Coupled with the strength of the home, the hope is reasonably high that you can return to the trail of success on the night of Saturday.
Estimated lineup of Houston Dynamo:
Willis - Lundqvist, K. Garcia, Struna, De La Garza - Vera, Cabezas - McNamara, B. Garcia, Elis - Manotas - Coach: Cabrera

Los Angeles - Statistics & Current Form
Forget Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Wayne Rooney or Bastian Schweinsteiger. The absolute superstar of MLS this season is the Mexican Carlos Vela, who is probably the best year in his career. In the top scorer list, he is with 19 goals clearly ahead and is aiming for the season record by Josef Martinez from Atlanta from last year, which scored 31 goals. In addition, Vela already has twelve assists in the account. It looks as if he could crack the mark of 20 there, which previously only two players in the history of MLS has succeeded.
So the Mexican is absolutely on record. It goes without saying that the LAFC scored by far the 50th most in the MLS. On top of that, the Californians have the best defense in the league. In the MLS LA has conceded only two defeats in the last 19 games. That too is a top value. So it does not stop there to say that Houston Dynamo and Los Angeles have a forecast for an away win.
Los Angeles swept the Vancouver Whitecaps 6-1 last weekend with a 5-1 victory in Kansas City. When the LAFC gets rolling, this team is hard to stop. However, the Portland Timbers proved how to do it during the week, when they won 1-0 in the US Open Cup in LA. Bob Bradley did not spin much, so that defeat came as a surprise.
"We are in a good mood and lost only twice in 19 games. We do really good things, but the most important thing is that we want more. If we do not become champions, it was a missed season. "
Carlos Vela
The LAFC is so crack and also the attackers are quite to get a grip. Nevertheless, this team is still full of confidence. Carlos Vela makes it clear that he and his team are hungry. In this season, everything is subordinated to the goal championship. Everything else would be a disappointment. Personnelly, it looks like we are expecting one or two changes compared to the cup match. Certainly not there is only Alejandro Guido, who has to pass because of a thigh injury.
Expected lineup of Los Angeles:
Sisniega - El Munir, Segura, Jakovic, Blackmon - Atuesta - Nguyen, Kaye, Rossi, Vela - Diomande - Coach: Bradley
Last Games from Los Angeles:

Houston Dynamo vs. Los Angeles USA Direct Comparison
Three games have so far only between Houston and Los Angeles to book. If we like, then the direct comparison is balanced. In the MLS there was a win for the LAFC and a draw. In the semi-finals of the US Open Cup, the Dynamos prevailed on penalties and won the title at the end. The last encounter, however, was the league game last October in Los Angeles. With 4: 2, the LAFC retained the upper hand. Carlos Vela (2), Walker Zimmerman and Adama Diomande met for the Californians. Mauro Manotas and Andrew Wenger were the scorers for Houston.
USA Houston Dynamo vs. Los Angeles USA Tip & Prediction - 13.07.2019
Many goals are inevitable when Los Angeles runs on the grass. There have always been at least four goals in all three games between Houston and the LAFC. This suggests that in the match between Houston Dynamo and Los Angeles, a bet on more than 3.5 goals could be successful.
Is it really only the question of how the hits split up. The Dynamos have lost just one of the last eleven games at home. On the other hand, LA is in a great shape, since the beginning of the season. That's why we consider the weekday defeat by Portland just a slip-up.
Key Facts - Houston Dynamo Vs. Los Angeles tip
Houston Dynamo has lost five of their last six competitive matches
For the Dynamos have lost at home only one of the last eleven game
Los Angeles scored the most goals in the MLS, but scored the least
When Carlos Vela gets going, a lot of people are in favor of an away win. So, in the analysis, even though the odds for this game outcome are very high at up to 7am, we come to the odds of winning away and winning over 3.5 goals in the duel between Houston Dynamo and Los Angeles become. Given the past games between these two clubs and the recent often high victories of the Californians this bet sounds very plausible.
