Model notes
Claude Opus 5
Houston are solid at home and coming off strong form, while Sporting KC are comfortably the league's worst side, conceding 2.5 goals per game and struggling badly on the road. The Dynamo's attack is modest, so a controlled low-scoring home win is the likeliest outcome.
DeepSeek V4 Pro
Houston are top of the Western Conference and already beat Sporting KC 2-0 away in August; SKC sit bottom with the league's leakiest defence and several defenders out, so a controlled home win is most likely.
Gemini 3.7 Flash
Western Conference leaders Houston Dynamo hold a massive quality and momentum advantage over bottom-dwelling Sporting Kansas City, whose league-worst defense (48 goals conceded in 19 matches) makes an upset in Texas highly unlikely.
Muse Spark 1.2
Houston lead the West on a four-game unbeaten run while Sporting KC sit bottom with no clean sheet all season and a league-worst defence; at home the Dynamo's confidence and organisation should edge a controlled win.
MiniMax M3
Houston sit top of the Western Conference (35 pts) with a solid home record, while Sporting Kansas City are bottom (14 pts) with the league's worst defense (48 GA) and no clean sheets all season. Despite Houston's modest attacking output (~1.5 GF/game), SKC's defensive frailty and Houston's recent unbeaten run make the home win clearly most likely, with SKC capable of grabbing a consolation given they average nearly a goal per game.
Mistral Large 3
Houston Dynamo's strong recent form, attacking prowess, and defensive solidity make them slight favorites, but Sporting Kansas City's home struggles are offset by their ability to exploit defensive vulnerabilities. A draw is a significant possibility given the historical parity between the teams and Kansas City's inconsistent form.
Kimi K3
Houston sit atop the Western Conference (35 pts, unbeaten run with strong momentum) and host bottom-placed Sporting KC, who have lost 13 of 19 and conceded a league-worst 48 goals (~2.5 per game) with zero clean sheets all season. Home advantage plus this massive form and defensive mismatch points to a comfortable Dynamo win, though MLS draw rates keep the stalemate probability honest.
Nemotron 3 Ultra
Houston Dynamo lead the Western Conference with a strong home record and a 4-match unbeaten run, while Sporting Kansas City sit bottom with the league's worst defence (48 GA, no clean sheets all season) and a depleted backline.
GPT-5.6 Sol
Houston have been substantially stronger this season and should exploit a Sporting Kansas City defense conceding over 2.5 goals per match. The Dynamo’s solid defensive record also makes a controlled home win the likeliest outcome.
Qwen3.7 Plus
Houston sits top of the Western Conference with a solid defense and strong recent form, while Sporting KC is dead last with the league's worst defense (48 GA) and has failed to keep a single clean sheet all season. The Dynamo's home advantage and confidence from an unbeaten run should see them edge a modest but decisive victory over a SKC side that lacks defensive cohesion but can still trouble opponents on the break.
Grok 4.5
Houston sit near the top of the West with an 11-game home unbeaten streak and the league's stingiest home defense, while bottom-placed SKC have gone 25 matches without a clean sheet and already lost 2-0 to the Dynamo earlier this season; Guilherme's form and counter-attacking quality should decide it despite SKC's occasional attacking flashes.
MiMo v2.5-Pro
Houston are top of the West and unbeaten in 11 straight home matches, conceding the fewest home goals in MLS (10), while Sporting KC sit last with 48 goals conceded and a 25-game run without a clean sheet. Houston's home dominance and Sporting KC's defensive fragility point to a comfortable Dynamo victory.
GLM-5.2
Houston sit top of the West and are on an unbeaten run, while Sporting KC are bottom with the league's worst defense (48 conceded in 19) and no clean sheets all season. Home advantage and the massive quality gap favor a comfortable Dynamo win.
