FOXBOROUGH, Mass. - The New England Revolution will aim to extend its league-best five-game unbeaten streak and remain atop the Eastern Conference and MLS standings when the club visits the two-time defending MLS Cup champion Houston Dynamo on Thursday, June 12 at Robertson Stadium. The game will be televised nationally on ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes, with coverage beginning with a live pregame show at 9 p.m. ET. The match will also be available on ESPN2 HD, while radio listeners can tune it to the WEEI Radio Network.

New England and Houston enter Thursday night's primetime showdown as two of the hottest teams in MLS. The Revs (7-3-2, 23 pts.) are 4-0-1 over the course of their five-game game unbeaten run and currently have a four-point lead over Chicago and Columbus for the most points in the league, while the Dynamo (4-3-5, 17 pts.) is 4-1-1 in its last six matches.

The meeting is the second of the season between the two sides and will conclude the two-game, regular-season series. The Revolution earned a slight measure of revenge in the season opener on March 29 - a rematch of the past two MLS Cups, both won by Houston - by earning a 3-0 victory behind goals from Steve Ralston, Adam Cristman and Sainey Nyassi.
