An important fact is that Brad Smith is Houston Dynamo FC’s only injured player heading into this upcoming game. The 28-year-old is recovering from a hamstring injury, and is expected to be able to return to the field by the end of April. The team’s only home appearance this season was a win over Austin FC, and now Ben Olsen’s men will be looking to give its fans another source of joy.

It is worth noting that Brazilian youngster Talles Magno has just scored against the capital team, and is becoming one of the most interesting players in the league as matchdays go by. He can definitely be crucial to New York City FC’s aspirations in 2023, thanks to his strong offense.
In two away games, New York City FC has gotten one draw and one loss, with one goal scored and three conceded.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Luis Barraza; Mitja Ilenic, Thiago Martins, Maxime Chanot, Brian Cufré; James Sands, Keaton Parks; Gabriel Pereira, Santiago Rodríguez, Matías Pellegrini; Talles Magno.

The last time these teams met was in August 2029, with New York City FC winning by 3-2, thanks to goals from Alexandru Mitrita, and a brace from Valentin Castellanos. On the other side, Juan Cabezas and Mauro Manotas scored for Houston Dynamo FC.
This Saturday’s match between Houston Dynamo FC vs New York City FC is expected to be equal in power and very intense. Therefore, JefeBet is leaning towards a draw in this matchday 5’s game of the MLS.
