In my opinion Seattle have really good chances to make at least one point in today's match up.

In overall they have very solid record against Houston as they lost only 5 of last 22 matches against them. They lost last match between both teams at this stadium 1:2, but that wasn't fully deserved result: expected goals scored for Seattle 1.17, for Houston 1.10.

I see big difference between both teams in terms of quality, ambitions and potential. Seattle finished last season on third place, 22 positions above Houston. Seattle had very slow start in current season, but in last round finally they looked like good, old Seattle. Offensive stars played on very high level - Londeiro, Roldan and Ruidiaz - all of them scored a goal against Minnesota and they coming here full of confidence.

Houston kept clean sheet in last round match at home against Nashville, but they had a lot of luck: expected goals conceded for them in that 1.40. For me is very hard to imagine clean sheet for them - Seattle firepower is big and Houston today will play without their two key defenders: Hadebe (third-best player in current season from whole team) and Lundqvist (best assistant in current season). It's a big blow for the team and should have very bad impact on their performance today.

Seattle should be able to score at least one goal and grab at least one point at the end of the day.

在我看来，西雅图有很好的机会在今天的比赛中至少取得一分。

总的来说，他们在对阵休斯顿的比赛中战绩非常出色，因为他们在过去的 22 场比赛中只输了 5 场。他们在这个体育场以 1:2 输掉了两支球队的最后一场比赛，但这并不是完全应得的结果：西雅图队的预期进球数为 1.17，休斯顿队的预期进球数为 1.10。

我看到两支球队在实力、雄心和潜力方面存在很大差异。西雅图上赛季排名第三，比休斯顿高出 22 个位置。西雅图本赛季开局非常缓慢，但在最后一轮他们看起来不错，老西雅图。进攻球星打出了非常高的水平——隆代罗、罗尔丹和鲁迪亚兹——他们都在对阵明尼苏达的比赛中打进一球，他们满怀信心来到这里。

休斯顿在主场对阵纳什维尔的上轮比赛中保持不失球，但他们运气不错：他们在 1.40 的预期失球。对我来说，很难想象他们能不失球——西雅图火力强大，休斯顿今天将没有他们的两名关键后卫：哈德贝（全队本赛季第三佳球员）和伦德奎斯特（本赛季最佳助理）。这对球队来说是一个很大的打击，应该会对他们今天的表现产生非常糟糕的影响。

西雅图应该能够至少获得一分。
