The Houston Dash are in Utah for a midweek clash. We asked our staff for their predictions on tonight’s match against the Utah Royals.

Rudy - 1-1 draw
(Record: 3-3)

The Houston Dash are still adjusting offensively after Makenzy Robbe’s season-ending injury, with rookie Kate Faasse still getting up to speed. Scoring chances have been hard to come by. Utah enters in strong form, but Houston’s defensive discipline should keep things tight, making a draw feel like the likely result.

Dustyn - 1-0 Dash loss
(Record: 4-2)

The lack of offense in this Dash team is beginning to be worrying, especially after they were so good early on. Utah is in fantastic form and a goal should be enough to get the home side the three points.

Manny - 1-1 draw
(Record: 3-3)

The Dash’s first midweek game comes at the worst time. A short turnaround can prove a challenge for this young squad. With no final third production against an in-form Utah Royals, it can be a mountain to climb, especially if this squad needs to be rotated with another game on Saturday. I see this as an exciting head to head match but with no one getting the three points.

Joey - no pick
(Record: 2-1)

Diego - no pick
(Record: 3-2)
