Houston Texans won against Indianapolis Colts last weekend to get their first win of the 2018 NFL season but are 1-3 for the season. They take on the Dallas Cowboys who had a narrow win over Detroit Lions last weekend and are 2-2 for the season. Houston began their season with defeats by the New England Patriots, Tennessee Titans and New York Giants but all were by narrow margins. Offense has gradually been improving as the season progresses with DeShaun Watson having scored seven touchdowns in his comeback from a knee injury.

The Dallas Cowboys have been in win-lose-win-lose form this season so could do with finding some consistency. It was nearly two defeats in a row though after squeezing home by two points against Detroit Lions in week four and can thank an improved offensive performance for that victory.  Players to look out for include Dak Prescott who has passed 752 yards and scored four touchdowns this season. The key here is the offensive abilities that Dallas possess. It’s not as strong as Houston’s and up against their defence which is ranked ninth in the NFL against the run, Houston can win this match.
