- Michael Parkhurst was sent off in their 3-2 win over New York City FC last time out and will be suspended here. Chad Barson and Tyson Wahl are back-up defenders but will start at the heart of their defence with Sauro also a doubt because of injury.
- The Houston Dynamo's injury problems have cleared up, although Collen Warner is out with a hamstring injury this weekend and Abdoulie Mansally is also sidelined with concussion.
- Some changes could be made to the side that started in their 4-1 defeat to LA Galaxy last time out. Erick Torres and Leonel Miranda are among those pushing for starts in forward positions.
