The forward from Vancouver arrives as one of the important references of the team and as that number "9" that should help the results begin to be generated. He has managed to contribute 7 goals, becoming the team's top scorer. What Cavallini needs to focus on is having more consistency on the pitch and he will need to combine better with the likes of Ryan Gauld, Brian White and Cristian Dajome to generate a fearsome offense and keep it going well into the season.
The Vancouver team started a new season with the expectation of reaching the postseason again, after missing out on the MLS playoffs the previous year in the Quarterfinals. For this, the team was reinforced with Ryan Gauld, Andrés Cubas and Pedro Vite to fight for this objective. Those led by Vanni Sartini hope to have better results before the end of the season where injuries forgive them and allow them to have a full squad for as long as possible. At the moment, they are in tenth place in the Western Conference with 27 units, after 7 wins, 6 draws and 10 losses. The team's last result was a draw against Nashville by a score of 1-1.
The Dynamo midfielder seeks to become one of the fundamental pieces of the team, this is one of the orchestrators of the offense and he comes to this duel after having started the championship in a great way, placing himself as the leader in the midfield and helping to orchestrate Texan offense. The most important thing for him is that the club begins to have more regularity on the pitch and better engage with players like Darwin Quintero and Sebastian Ferreira to form a lethal forward.
The Texan team enters BC Place to face the Whitecaps as the 11th place in the MLS Western Conference with a record of 7 wins, 4 draws and 12 losses, to reach 25 points. The Dynamo will be looking to take advantage of the duel against Vancouver to try and get closer to the MLS playoff spots. The Houston Dynamo reaches this date after a local defeat against the Philadelphia Union by a score of 6 to 0. This season, the team maintains a good base led by Darwin Quintero, Steve Clark, Tim Parker and Fafá Picault.

This arrived in the summer market and little by little has begun to gain minutes on the pitch, the Dynamo will try to sneak into playoff positions for the end of the season.
