HOUSTON (June 14, 2025) – Houston Dynamo 2 travels to face Real Monarchs on Sunday, June 15, with kickoff scheduled for 8:30 p.m. CT at Zions Bank Stadium. This is the first of two meetings this season between both sides, and fans can tune into the live action via MLSNEXTPro.com.
In Houston’s most recent trip to Salt Lake City last season, Dos secured a 2-1 victory with goals from forward Stephen Annor and former Dynamo player Ousmane Sylla.
Dos currently sits fifth in the Western Conference with 21 points and a 5-5-3 (WLD) record.
Dynamo 2 opened this four-match road stretch with a 4-1 defeat versus Minnesota United FC 2 at National Sports Center Stadium on Thursday. Despite the result, the match did see attacker Joshua Bolma score his first Dynamo 2 goal, defender Gavin Wolff record his first professional assist and defender Juan Viveros make his first start for Dynamo 2, after making his MLS NEXT Pro debut last weekend in a 1-1 draw versus Sporting Kansas City II.
Last week, Dynamo 2 announced the signings of Dynamo Academy product David Garcia and Viveros. Garcia, a regular in the youth Venezuelan national team pool, joins Dos directly from the Club’s Academy, where he began with the U-13 team in January 2021 and rose through the ranks to feature for Dynamo 2 several times last season. The forward made his professional debut at the age of 15, before going on to make 16 appearances for Dynamo 2, while scoring his first professional goal in a 2-0 victory versus in-state rivals Austin FC II on July 11, 2024. Viveros joins Dynamo 2 on loan from Boca Juniors de Cali in Colombia, having recorded 51 appearances in Colombia’s second division, Categoría Primera B.

The Salt Lake City based team are coming off a 2-1 home victory over Tacoma Defiance, with Jesus Barea scoring both goals for the RSL affiliate.
