Preview
Houston and Sporting KC face at Shell Energy Stadium, in a match of the MLS. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 4 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss in the last 8 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 27‑11‑2023, in a match for the MLS, Houston Dynamo won by (1‑0). The only goal of the match was scored by Franco Escobar (39' ). In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Houston

This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches; against 9 wins, 5 draws and 1 loss at their stadium. In their last match, for the Concacaf Champions League, they got an away loss against St. Louis City by (2‑1). In the last 10 home matches Houston has won 7 and tied 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches.

Houston Dynamo takes to their home turf with a clear mission: kickstart the Major League Soccer season with a win. They understand the importance of a solid strategy, one that emphasizes intense marking and clinical attacking prowess. The coaching staff will need to devise a game plan that maximizes their strengths and exploits Sporting KC's weaknesses. Victory is the only acceptable outcome for Dynamo as they aim to make a statement in the league.

Confirmed Lineup: Steve Clark, Micael dos Santos Silva, Erik Sviatchenko, Tate Schmitt, Griffin Dorsey, Bradley Smith, Sebastian Kowalczyk, Brooklyn Raines, Artur, Adalberto Carrasquilla Alcázar, Aliyu Ibrahim.
Coach: B. Olsen.

Analysis Sporting KC

This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 22 goals scored and 27 conceded; against 9 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 30 goals scored and 18 conceded. In their last match, for the Club Friendlies, they got an away win against Atlanta United by (1‑3). In the last 10 away matches Sporting KC has won 4, tied 1 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

Sporting KC understands the importance of securing points away from home in their debut in the Major League Soccer, making it essential to consider the possibility of earning points through a draw. While not their primary objective, it's crucial to acknowledge the formidable offensive capabilities of the opposing team. This underscores the importance of maintaining high levels of concentration throughout the match, as any lapse could compromise the scoreline. Therefore, it's the type of game where maximum concentration is paramount.

Confirmed Lineup: Timothy Melia, Daniel Rosero Valencia, Tim Leibold, Jacob Davis, Andreu Fontàs, Rémi Walter, Nemanja Radoja, Erik Thommy, Dániel Sallói, Johnny Russell, Alan Pulido.
