Quick movement

Houston are hard to break down.

They've conceded the second fewest goals in the Western Conference with just 27 in 23 matches.

Just like we saw in the first half on Wednesday, we will need quick movements ahead of the ball. Quality shooting and crosses will be important, just like that brilliant ball from Sebastian Berhalter.

No unforced errors

The second half was not as strong for the 'Caps as the first half on Wednesday.

We need to be disciplined and patient in possession if the quick attack is not on.

No unforced errors.

Stay with runners

While Houston have scored the second fewest goals in the Western Conference, they do have good movement in and around the penalty area.

They have also added a pair of dynamic new players in Ezequiel Ponce and Lawrence Ennali who could make their debuts.

We need to stay with their runners.
