Passing & Build-Up
Passing accuracy averages 84% for San Jose Earthquakes and 83% for Houston Dynamo. Higher passing accuracy generally indicates a possession-based style with patient build-up through the thirds, while lower figures may suggest a more direct, counter-attacking approach with long balls and quick transitions.
Discipline
San Jose Earthquakes's starters have collected 7 yellow cards this season, compared to 10 for Houston Dynamo. Yellow cards reflect how aggressively a team presses and tackles — a high count may indicate a physical, high-pressing style but also risks suspensions and late free-kicks in dangerous areas.

San Jose Earthquakes's starters average 6 league appearances each, versus 9 for Houston Dynamo. High appearance counts indicate an established, well-drilled unit that the manager trusts week in and week out.
