Houston
Houston can be backed at +750 to triumph by a 2-1 scoreline. It can be fun to have a wager on the correct score and there’s a big potential return if the bet wins.
Player Prop Picks
Duane Holmes (Houston) can be wagered at -120 to have one or more shots on goal. All things considered, we think that the betting odds are really appealing when it comes to backing him on the Shots Target market.
Mateusz Bogusz (Houston) has racked up two goals in his past four MLS matches. Based on the stats, we think that odds of +340 are really appealing when it comes to betting on Anytime Goalscorer.
