HOUSTON, TEXAS (July 18, 2025)  Houston Dynamo FC returns to Shell Energy Stadium on Saturday, July 19, for a cross-conference clash against the Philadelphia Union. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. CT as the club wraps up the second of a three-match homestand.

The match marks a special occasion as the Dynamo celebrate H-Town Night. The night will be packed with local flair, including a halftime performance by Houston rap legend Mike Jones.

Before the match, fans can enjoy a custom car show on the north side of the stadium at HDFC Headquarters and take photos in front of a 713-themed backdrop on the concourse. Local artists involved in the Free Walls project will also be recognized during the match, showcasing the city’s deep connection to art and culture.

On the pitch, Houston will look to build momentum as they face a Union squad that hasn’t visited Shell Energy Stadium since their last meeting in 2018. That match ended in a 3-0 Dynamo victory in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final, with Mauro Manotas scoring twice and a Philadelphia own goal sealing the result.

The Dynamo close out the homestand next week when they host LA Galaxy on Friday, July 25, for Military Appreciation Night.
