Houston Dynamo vs CF Montreal Predictions

Go for goals in Houston

Houston’s recent games have featured plenty of goals, and this clash with Montreal at BBVA Compass Stadium should be no different. Over 2.5 goals is the bet, with only two other MLS teams having conceded more than Montreal’s 32 goals this season.

Houston have 12 more points than Montreal, with five wins, five draws and seven losses, while the visitors have just one win so far, alongside five draws and 11 defeats.

Houston’s recent form has been inconsistent, with three wins and two defeats in their last six games, but Montreal are struggling more, with only one victory in their last ten matches.

Houston lost 3-1 to Kansas City two weeks ago in their last MLS outing, keeping up their recent pattern of games with over 2.5 goals. They have scored the opening goal in their last five games, and have lost two of the ten games this season in which they’ve scored first (20%).

The last three times that Houston have hosted Montreal in MLS have all ended with over 2.5 goals, and the trend can continue.

Houston may be able to edge out Montreal in a game featuring plenty of goals, with a 2-1 home win the correct-score pick. Four of Houston’s last six MLS games have featured three goals or more, while Montreal have lost by a single goal six times.
