Houston Dynamo
The Dynamo suffered a frustrating loss this past Thursday. They lost to New York City FC by a score of 3-2. The Dynamo also ended this game with ten men after Romell Quito was shown a red card. The Dynamo are slipping in the standings and still sit in ninth place with 30 points. They are three points behind FC Dallas for seventh place, so a win would be huge here. The problem is Houston is terrible on the road. They have won just twice away from home in thirteen matches.
The Dynamo will be down a striker, but Quito only has two goals this season so it is not a huge loss. That said, Houston only scores an average of 1.18 goals per game on the road. They have scored a total of five goals in their last two road matches, so maybe they can continue this hot scoring streak against the Union.

The Dynamo defense is where majority of the Houston struggles have come. They allow an average of 2.27 goals per game when playing on the road. We saw them allow more than this average on Thursday to New York. I have no confidence that Houston will be able to slow down Philadelphia, and believe the Union will score multiple times.
Philadelphia Union
The Union continue to sit in first place in the East with a total of 42 points. This is a game they must have to keep Atlanta off their backs. Also, this game will be played at home where they have won seven of twelve matches.
The Union attack was absolutely on fire last week as they went to DC and crushed them by a score of 5-1. At home they are probably a better attacking club as they average 2.17 goals per game. Look for the Union to take advantage of a soft Dynamo defense and score at least twice.

The Union defense was great at DC, but they are even better this season when playing at home. They only allow 1.08 goals per game on average. Houston still has scoring threats, so the Union could easily allow one goal. This is all I believe that the Union will allow just like last week against DC United.
Free Houston Dynamo vs. Philadelphia Union MLS Prediction:
The Philly attack will be too much to handle and they will maintain their lead on top of the East.
4* Free MLS Betting Pick: OVER 3
The moneyline for the Union is way too steep, so I will back the over and trust that the Union will score several by themselves.
