San Jose
- Houston have to deal with two massive losses over the off season after star attackers, Elis and Manotas, both left the club.
- They'll be hoping new signing Picault can pick up some of the slack, while youngster Ariel Lassiter is only expected to improve in attack.
- José Bizama is expected to miss out on the opening day due to an unspecified injury.
- Andres Rios looks likely to get the nod up top other club legend Chris Wondolowski.
- At right-back it's a toss up between Tommy Thompson and new signing Luciano Abecasis for the starting spot.
