The MLS is back in action with another round o matches this weekend as Sporting Kansas City lock horns with Houston Dynamo in an important clash at the PNC Stadium on Saturday.
Houston Dynamo vs Sporting Kansas City Preview
Houston Dynamo are currently in seventh place in the MLS Western Conference standings and have been inconsistent so far this season. The hosts slumped to a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Seattle Sounders in their previous game and will need to bounce back this weekend.
