My Prediction
Saint Louis City SC by 1Folks listen up, we've got the Houston Dynamo taking on Saint Louis City SC in a face-off that's sure to provide some entertaining soccer. Now, let's dig into some details.
In the goaltending department, Saint Louis City SC has Roman Bürki tending the net with an admirable 7.03 rating and 12 saves under his belt. On the other hand, Houston's own Jonathan Bond has been faring a bit worse, currently sitting at a 6.60 rating with 4 saves. Can't argue with numbers, folks.
Advantage? Saint Louis City SC.
When we take a look at the top players, we see Eduard Löwen and João Klauss stealing the show for Saint Louis City SC. Löwen has been lighting it up with an 8.30 rating, 1 goal, 1 shot on goal, and 79.4 accurate pass percentage. And Klauss? Let's just say his 7.60 rating, 4 goals, 5 shots on goal, and 83.3 percent accurate passing are not to be sneezed at.
Houston brings its own arsenal with Gabriel Segal and Jack McGlynn. Segal's 7.50 rating, 2 goals, 3 shots on goal, and 67.6 accurate pass percentage makes him an offensive threat. McGlynn, with his 7.40 rating, is not far behind.
Advantage? Call it a toss-up.
Historically, Saint Louis City SC seems to have Houston's number, as evidenced by past matchups. They've got two victories and two draws, so they're not exactly batting .1000 but it's pretty darn close.
Taking a look at each team's recent run of form, it’s clear neither of them has been particularly impressive. Everything seems pretty level in that regard.
And when it comes to regular season records - there's little separating Saint Louis City SC and Houston Dynamo. It's like comparing apples and, well, slightly better looking apples.
So, pulling all of this together, who’d get my bet?
