The APWin team has examined the key betting markets and identified the most valuable opportunities.

👉 Our prediction is: San Diego to win

While San Diego will head into their match against Houston Dynamo as the favourite, it is still far from a sure thing to score three points away from home. Nevertheless, our betting tip is still San Diego to win on the 1X2 market.

Our analysis of San Diego leads us to believe that they are quite capable on their travels and can come up with the away win without much trouble, even against a tricky opponent like Houston Dynamo.

👉 Our prediction is: Both teams to score

The best betting option for Houston Dynamo vs San Diego is the Both Teams to Score market - BTTS. After all, both teams need to seek victory and shouldn't 'park the bus' waiting for the opponent.

But that's not the only reason we believe in a game with goals for both teams. We also see value odds in the BTTS market when we have two offensive teams, as is the case with Houston Dynamo and San Diego in this game.

To guarantee a win on Both Teams to Score, as the name suggests, we need both Houston Dynamo and San Diego to score goals.
