An MLS fixture will see two teams with different objectives clash at Gilette Stadium as New England hosts Houston in the 2nd round of the American MLS.
Considering the statistics and the meetings between these two American clubs, they have met 18 times in general. Where 78% percent of the games (14/18) have ended up with a maximum of 3 goals in a game. We expect the scenario to be repeated.
Taking into consideration the results as both teams came up head-to-head in the MLS previously. New England had the chance to win 50% of the games and 22% of the games ended up in a draw. We expect them to grab the win.
