Since entering the league, the Fort Lauderdale club have only beaten the Dynamo once in four prior meetings, winning 1-0 at home in 2020. In their opening match of the season Houston had to play without Nelson Quinones and Lawrence Ennali, both of whom were dealing with knee injuries.

Júnior Urso joins Houston after five seasons in MLS, playing over 100 matches combined for Orlando City FC and Charlotte FC. The veteran Brazilian midfielder brings production, totaling 13 goals and 10 assists in those games, as well as a wealth of experience with nine postseason appearances.
