Impact - Galaxy, 3 p.m., MLS Live
Dynamo - DC United, 3:30 p.m., NBCSN
Crew - FC Dallas, 6:30 p.m., MLS Live
Revolution - Whitecaps, 6:30 p.m., MLS Live
Fire - Sporting KC, 7:30 p.m., MLS Live
Sounders - RSL, 9 p.m., MLS Live

Obviously, the big match is in Houston as the Dynamo open their new park. The Fire have got four points in their last two matches (both on the road) and will take on first-place SKC and, in the night cap, the hottest team in MLS, the Sounders take on an always-tough RSL side.

Gmorgan predictions:
Impact 1-3 Galaxy
Dynamo 3-1 DC United
Crew 1-0 FC Dallas
Revolution 0-1 Whitecaps
Fire 1-3 SKC
Sounders 2-0 RSL

Hope Pontius scores and the Dynamo win. Always want to open a stadium right.

I guess LA's back line still sucks. Arnaud gives the Impact an early 1-0 lead.

The Galaxy are starting to look threatening. Ricketts made a pretty big save against his own team earlier.

Omar Gonzalez is big time. When Ream got all the headlines, it was Gonzo that was the better defender. It shows now.

Yeah, that was the biggest offseason loss in MLS, IMO.

Enjoy it Brian Ching, since you've bitched for months about the Dynamo dropping the ball and letting you go.

Someone may want to check and see whether or not Donovan is dead.

ETA: OK, he just moved.

Do all stadiums have "opening goals"? Seems a little odd.

Arlo White can call the shite out of a football match.

Kyle Martino is also really good as an American color commentator, better than Twellman and Harkes.

I realllly reallllly hope Perry Kitchen does continue to get better. I wish he would have had a better showing in the Olympic Quals.

Agreed. Kinda sucks he doesn't still do all the Sounders matches but I don't think NBCSN could have picked a better PBP guy.

So this match is apparently being reffed by the MLS version of Ed Hulkalee

Beckham scores off a free kick to tie things in Montreal.

Obligatory "Beckham is dangerous on free kicks" line.

I can't believe there are so many open seats in the Houston stadium.


Bill Hamid is not very good on set pieces and corners. He is still on my shite list.

Funnest MLS Fun Fact Ever:

Dynamo Centerback Bobby Boswell once was a contestant on this Nickelodeon game show...
