Player to watch: Federico Bernardeschi

We are giving Bernardeschi a shoutout in our Houston Dynamo vs Toronto prediction, as the Italian midfielder is without a doubt coach John Herdman’s most important player right now. He is the leading finisher on the team, with eight goals since the start of the season.

Second player to watch: Lorenzo Insigne

World Cup Champion Insigne is the second player to watch here, as he is getting in shape at the right moment. He had his issues at the start of the campaign, but recently he has been at his lethal best, scoring four goals and supplying teammates with 10 assists.
