STREAMING: MLS LIVE on ESPN+ in US, on DAZN in Canada
The Houston Dynamo have secured 17 out of a maximum 21 points at BBVA Compass Stadium and they will look to stretch an unbeaten run to eight games when they host D.C. United Saturday night.
The Dynamo (6-2-2) were disappointed not to take all three points Wednesday night, but Portland Timbers new signing Brian Fernandez leveled late, canceling out Mauro Manotas' seventh goal in seven regular season appearances against the Timbers.
D.C. United (7-3-3) spent much of Wednesday's 0-0 draw at Toronto FC behind the ball with the hosts peppering the Black-and-Red with 34 shots. But Bill Hamid made 12 saves as D.C. extended an unbeaten streak to three games and moved into sole possession of first place in the Eastern Conference.
