Houston Dynamo Fc vs Los Angeles Football Club Picks and Predictions April 5th 2025

LAFC Look to Build Momentum Against Winless Dynamo

Los Angeles FC is back on the road Saturday, aiming to extend its winning ways and gain consistency against a struggling Houston Dynamo squad still searching for its first win of the season.

LAFC (3-3-0, 9 points) continues to balance MLS play with CONCACAF Champions Cup commitments. While their domestic form has been inconsistent—winning three matches by a combined 4-0 score and losing three by a combined 9-4—they showed their best self midweek. In a composed 1-0 win over Inter Miami in the Champions Cup quarterfinal first leg, LAFC looked aggressive, connected, and in control.

“There are LAFC performances where we are aggressive, engaged, and connected… I think (Wednesday) you saw the aggressive LAFC on the front foot,”

– LAFC head coach Steve Cherundolo on the team’s improved intensity against Miami.

Even with a crucial second leg against Miami looming, Cherundolo’s team won’t be overlooking the Dynamo. Houston (0-4-2, 2 points) is one of just five MLS teams without a win this season and enters Saturday’s match with urgency and frustration.

Despite dominating possession in Sunday’s 3-1 loss to the Portland Timbers, Houston managed just one shot on goal while allowing nine. The Dynamo now sit tied for last in MLS in total shots on target, with just 10 through six games.

“It was just undisciplined, and that’s getting old… What we’re saying and not being able to implement it… is unacceptable,”

– Dynamo head coach Ben Olsen on his team’s lack of execution.

Houston could debut two new signings this weekend—midfielder Ondrej Lingr and defender Pablo Ortiz—as they attempt to fix a leaky back line and ineffective attack. LAFC, meanwhile, will be without Igor Jesus (red card suspension), while Olivier Giroud and Marlon may see limited action after returning from injury in Wednesday’s victory.
