Houston Dynamo MLS Betting Odds
It hasn’t been an easy last six years for the Houston Dynamo. The franchise came into the MLS guns blazing with four trips to the MLS Cup in its first seven seasons, but the Dynamo have made it to the postseason just once in the last six seasons. Houston has finished eighth or worse in the Western Conference in five of the last six seasons but hope springs eternal entering 2020. The Dynamo poached one of the best players on a Western Conference rival, and they seemingly improved at goalkeeper too with the addition of Marko Maric.

Houston Dynamo 2020 Preview
Darwin Quintero was the big signing for the Dynamo this offseason. Quintero is a proven goal scorer with 146 goals in his professional career to date. He was one of the stars for Minnesota United FC last year, and he should give Houston another weapon to use up top alongside Alberth Elis and Mauro Manotas.
Maric should make this team much better in the back too with his goalkeeping prowess. He shined with Lillestrom in Norway, and he is expected to be a significant upgrade over outgoing goalkeeper Joe Willis. Cody Cropper was brought in just in case Maric has trouble adjusting to the MLS, but he should be fine.

The Houston Dynamo had one of the best starts you can imagine for a team moving to a new city. Ownership moved the club from San Jose at the conclusion of the 2005 season in order to find a city willing to build a brand-new soccer-specific stadium. Houston welcomed the club with open arms and was immediately rewarded with the club winning back-to-back MLS Cups right after the move.
However, it wasn’t all roses for the club after the move to Houston. The original name for the Houston franchise was Houston 1836. This was supposed to be a nod to when the city was founded, but that was also the same year that Texas gained its independence from Mexico. Many Houstonians protested the name, and it was quickly decided that the team should be named the Dynamo instead.
In an interesting twist, the Dynamo have only finished on top of the table once during their 12 seasons in the league despite making it to the MLS Cup four times. Additionally, they have the rare distinction of making it to the MLS Cup as both a member of the Western Conference and a member of the Eastern Conference.
