Player to watch: Ezequiel Ponce
Our readers should know that Ezequiel Ponce is the leading goalscorer for coach Olsen this season. The striker found the net on four occasions, and we can’t wait to see if he will be able to prove our top Houston Dynamo vs St. Louis City prediction correct.
Ponce a firm starter
Since the start of the season, Ponce has missed only two games. During that time, he also managed to provide a teammate with an assist. We are confident that he will be on coach Olsen’s starting XI on 29 June.
