San Diego vs Houston Dynamo Prediction and Betting Tips

San Diego will host Houston Dynamo at the Snapdragon Stadium on Saturday in another round of the 2025 Major League Soccer campaign. The home side have enjoyed a remarkable debut campaign so far and now sit atop the Western Conference with 39 points from 20 matches.

They picked up a narrow 3-2 away victory at Dallas last time out, with Anders Dreyer opening the scoring from the spot midway through the first half before substitutes Hirving Lozano and Tomas Angel got on the scoresheet in the second to secure maximum points for Mikey Varas' men.

Houston Dynamo, meanwhile, have had their struggles in the league this season and will need to step things up significantly if they are to secure a third consecutive playoff appearance. They locked horns with St. Louis City in their last match and picked up a narrow but well-deserved 1-0 win, with Ezequiel Ponce netting the sole goal of the game in the second half.

The visitors sit 10th in the West with 23 points from 20 matches and will be looking to add to that tally when they play on Saturday.
