Portland Timbers vs Houston Dynamo Prediction & Betting Tips (2 June)

Portland Timbers currently find themselves on an 11-game winless run at the top table of the MLS, and five of their last nine encounters have ended in defeat. The contrast with Houston Dynamo could not be much more striking, so all the signs point in one direction.

Just one of the previous 19 Portland Timbers home games in the MLS has served up more than three goals, so they certainly cannot be accused of a lack of consistency in this particular department. Although Houston Dynamo cannot compete with these numbers, it remains the case that 18 of their most recent 21 matches at this level have also been of the under 3.5 goals variety.

Houston Dynamo are the owners of an incredible recent record when it comes to finding the net in away matches, doing so in 18 of their previous 19 league games, including in eight in a row of late. What’s more, they have both scored and conceded in 14 of their last 18 contests overall, and Portland Timbers have done the same in six of their last seven MLS fixtures.
