The excitement of the 2024 MLS season continues, and with all the teams back in action in the local competition after the 2024 Leagues Cup, we will have an extraordinary schedule until the end of the regular phase.
Right now, the battle between the teams is simple but complicated. And the fact is that, from now on, every point can mean the qualification to the postseason or the goodbye to this campaign.
At the moment, Inter Miami continues to dominate the MLS Eastern Conference with an eight-point lead over FC Cincinnati and a ten-point lead over the reigning champions, Columbus Crew. On the other hand, the LA Galaxy remains at the top of the Western Conference, but the five points it has over LAFC can vanish in the blink of an eye since the latter has three games less.
Now, on this new match day, we will have a high-voltage clash between Houston Dynamo and LAFC.

Why Bet on the Houston Dynamo?
The Houston Dynamo have had a decent season so far, as they are in seventh place in the Western Conference standings with a record of eleven wins, seven draws, and eight losses, with 37 goals scored and 31 conceded.
Although the team entered the top seven of the table, they are tied with 40 points with Portland Timbers and Seattle Sounders, so they will have to play for their lives from now on to avoid dropping out of the playoffs.
The Dynamo comes into this match after an excellent victory, precisely against LAFC as visitors by 2-0. As a result, the Texan team already knows the formula to take the three points in this match.
Why Bet on the LAFC?
LAFC, for their part, has been one of the best teams in MLS this 2024 season.
Although they are in second place in the standings and five points behind their city rivals, the LA Galaxy, the team has three games less played (nine points), so, they could storm the first place and take a four points lead over the Galaxy.
LAFC, as previously mentioned, comes from losing at home, precisely against this same rival with a score of 0-2. Before that, they lost in the Grand Final of the Leagues Cup 2024 against Columbus Crew by 1-3, and, subsequently, they qualified for the Grand Final of the US Open Cup by beating the Sounders by 1-0.
