The Lamar Hunt US Open Cup is back in action as the Houston Dynamo will face Sporting Kansas City in round 5 of the competition. Both clubs will be missing some personnel to international call-ups and each side will also have an eye on fixtures this weekend for MLS play. This is the first meeting between the two sides this season and should be a good one even if some reserves get the start. SKC sit at the top of the Western Conference table with the Dynamo directly beneath them.
In our preview of the match we discussed how each club got to this round in the tournament, but we wanted an insider’s perspective so we spoke with Cody Bradley at the Blue Testament to discuss the upcoming game.
