Houston Dynamo desperately need points on Sunday, Nov 8 at 1:00 AM in the MLS. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Houston Dynamo come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). St. Louis City, meanwhile, arrive in red-hot form (4W from last 5) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Houston Dynamo and St. Louis City have split their 10 meetings almost evenly (3W–3D–4W). Their last encounter ended in Houston Dynamo won 1–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.2 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: St. Louis City's quality should tell even on the road. Houston Dynamo will push, but the visitors have too much class. St. Louis City to win.
