My Prediction
Kansas City Current by 2Now listen, folks, I know what you're thinking about the power player roster for Houston Dash, as it boasts a solid line-up including the likes of Natalie Jacobs and Avery Patterson with their commendable passing accuracy. However, don't let that fool you. Despite their fancy footwork, these gals are yet to put any real numbers on the board in the goal department. Meanwhile, on the Kansas City Current's side, they come packing heat with Debinha, who's been lighting a fire under the ball and making sure it finds its home in the net, not to mention Michelle Cooper and Lo’eau LaBonta following suit.
And, while Houston's keeper, Jane Campbell, has a respectful save count, we just can't ignore the fact that Kansas City's Lorena boasts a higher rating, offering more resistance to any shots thrown her way.
The ghosts of match past also don't dance in Houston's favor. We've seen Kansas City win or tie in three out of the last four head-to-heads. And, as if past nightmares weren't enough, Houston is currently staggering with a regular season record of 1-1-2, while Kansas City breathes the rarified air of an undefeated record.
Even the recent past has Houston blushing with consecutive losses, save for a single match, whereas Kansas City colors itself in glory with four straight victories.
Bottom line, folks: this game is far from being a shot in the dark. All signs point to an easy choice, as far as predictions go.
