Welcome back, everyone.
The Vancouver Whitecaps continue their Texas swing in Houston this weekend, as they take on a dangerous but inconsistent Dynamo side at Shell Energy Stadium.
In terms of Vancouver’s roster, here is the latest.
Now, on to results and standings. I’ll have an update on the table as soon as I can.
Guess the XI – Competition Rules
• Predictions are considered valid only if posted in the correct match thread before the official lineup is announced (typically about one hour before kickoff).
• You earn 1 point for each correctly predicted player in the Starting XI.
• You earn an additional 4 bonus points for correctly predicting all 11 starters.
• You earn 5 points for correctly predicting the match result (Win/Draw/Loss).
• This increases to 10 points if you also correctly predict the exact scoreline.
• Therefore, a perfect prediction (Starting XI + result + exact scoreline) is worth a maximum of 25 points.

Draw 1-1
I switched the draw/win combo the last two matches. Let’s see if I can get it right this time.

Caps 4-1 Going big this time! I sort of feel like Cabrera is best in the middle but I guess if Muller is back there’s a lot of roaming. I would like to see him start and Bruno comes in as a super sub.
I also like Badwal I prefer a Sabbi or a Cabrera with Muller and Larraz is a more agressive player like Cubas.
