Austin suffered a 2-0 defeat away to Houston Dynamo in their last outing, marking their fourth loss of the campaign. Despite the setback, Los Verdes are third in the West with 16 points and remain in contention for second place.
Their home form has been solid, with just one defeat in front of their fans. Last season’s underwhelming finish seems firmly behind them, and they look far more competitive this term. They also beat Minnesota 1-0 in their last head-to-head encounter.

Minnesota have also collected 16 points but are winless in their last three matches. They’ve drawn twice and lost once during that stretch, costing them momentum in the race for the top spots.
However, the Loons are unbeaten in their last four away games and defeated Austin 2-1 at Q2 Stadium last season. Their away record gives them hope of upsetting the odds again, despite their current dip.
MatchPlug Prediction Austin FC VS Minnesota United
Both teams come into this game after defeats and will be eager to respond. Austin have a slight edge with home advantage and better overall form at Q2 Stadium this season.
Minnesota’s away resilience makes them dangerous, but Austin’s cohesion and recent home performances give them the edge in what could be a tight contest.
Final Prediction: Austin FC
