Minnesota United is unbeaten in its last five matches against the Dynamo, including winning the last three in a row. The Loons have never won four straight matches against an opponent in the club’s MLS history.
The Dynamo came from behind to beat San Jose, 2-1, on Sunday, ending a four-match winless run (D1 L3). Houston has posted consecutive wins just once in their last 69 league games dating back to September 2020, beating Miami and San Jose in early April this year.
Minnesota United has won four of its last five matches (D1) following a 2-0 win over D.C. United on Saturday. This is the second time in club history that the Loons have 13 points from a five-match regular season span, also doing so in June-July 2019.
Both of Houston’s goals in its comeback win in San Jose on Sunday were scored in the final 25 minutes of the match. Six of the Dynamo’s last seven MLS goals have been scored after the 65th minute after they had scored only three of their first 20 goals of the 2022 season after 65’.
Emanuel Reynoso scored both goals in Minnesota’s win over D.C. on Saturday, his third multi-goal performance in his last five games. Reynoso’s seven goals and nine goal contributions are the most in MLS since the league returned from the international break in mid-June.
