Match description

I predict a Seattle Sounders win because their form is clearly superior — in the last 5 matches they have 4 wins and 1 draw (avg. 2.6 points per game) versus Houston, who in their last 5 have 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses (1.4 PPG). Defensively Seattle is significantly stronger away: they concede on average 0.5 goals per game and have 75% clean sheets, while Houston at home concede 1.67 goals per game and have no clean sheets. Houston’s attack at home is more active in terms of shots (13.67 vs 9.75) and has a higher conversion rate (12% vs 8% for Seattle), but average shots on target are practically equal (4.33 vs 4.25). The possession gap of 51% to 40% and Seattle’s superior recent results (PPG 2.6 vs 1.4) suggest the visitors will control the match and have a higher probability of winning.
