Minnesota United vs Austin: Live stream, TV channel, kick-off time & where to watch

The victory over Portland Timbers by Minnesota was just what the doctor prescribed after they went more than a month without winning in any competition.

It may be unlikely that they will move up to the top seven, but if they earn all possible points this weekend, they may replace Houston Dynamo in that position.

Only two points and three spots separate the visitors and the hosts, and Austin has taken advantage of Houston's recent struggles to move up to seventh position.

The recent tie against Inter Miami was disappointing for Josh Wolff's team, but their two triumphs up to this point have allowed them to cut the gap on Houston to one point and on the sixth-place San Jose Earthquakes to two.

Here GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.
