February 29. It feels like years ago, but that was the last time the Dynamo played a MLS game at BBVA Stadium. After nearly 6 months away, Houston returns home to take on in-state rival FC Dallas in the first Texas Derby of an unusual 2020 season.
After Major League Soccer took an extended break due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Dynamo took part in the MLS is Back Tournament in Orlando in July. Houston picked up two draws in a loss, and were eliminated from the tournament in the group stage. Tonight’s match is the opening fixture of Phase 1 for the Dynamo which will see the team play 6 games over the next 3 plus weeks.
