Mohammed Saeid of Sweden, and Brazilian midfielder Alex could hold the key to success for their respective sides this weekend, when the Colorado Rapids travel to Houston Dynamo (Altitude TV, 6.30 p.m. MT). Both are capable of carving out chances.
Saeid has four assists for the Rapids since joining from Minnesota United FC earlier in the season, including two which led to game-winning goals from Alan Gordon.
Alex is in double digits for assists for the first time in his MLS career. Indeed, in a 3-1 win at D.C. United on July 22 - Houston's only road win of 2017 so far - he became the first Dynamo player since 2011 to tally three assists in a game.
