FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – The Houston Dynamo are a familiar foe with an entirely new look.
After missing out on the playoffs in their first year under the direction of head coach Owen Coyle in 2015, Houston underwent massive changes in the offseason, parting ways with 12 players – including longtime stalwart Brad Davis – and bringing 10 new faces into the mix.
As many as four of those newcomers could feature in the Dynamo’s starting lineup when the New England Revolution visit BBVA Compass Stadium for the season opener on Sunday afternoon.
That gives the Dynamo a touch of unpredictability, but neither side will be completely in the dark after meeting in the Desert Diamond Cup just one week ago.
