Jefferson Savarino. Need I say more? That’s what everyone’s thinking about with Saturday’s match, and I’m right there with everyone. After all, he’s back, and he very well could play.
What RSL needs to do to win
Houston simply hasn’t been scoring goals at any great clip — a little more than once a game over their last eight — but neither has RSL, who haven’t scored more than nine goals in an eight-game period.
Houston has also been slightly better at not conceding goals, with 10 conceded in their last eight. RSL? They’ve conceded 13 goals in every eight-game stretch this season.
