The Dynamo are currently in the midst of a push for the Audi 2025 MLS Cup Playoffs, sitting just one place and one point outside of the Western Conference playoff line with three regular season matches remaining, including on the road versus Nashville (Sept. 27), at home versus San Diego (Oct. 4) and on the road versus Kansas City (Oct. 18).
In Houston’s previous meeting with conference-leading San Diego in July, the Dynamo earned a thrilling 4-3 road victory over the hosts. The match saw goals from forward Lawrence Ennali and defender Franco Escobar, while forward Ezequiel Ponce scored two late goals (87’ and 100’) to secure the victory.
