* Update -- It looks as if defender Claudio Suarez will play. Suarez, who twisted his left ankle last week against Colorado, practiced Tuesday despite the medical staff telling him it would be difficult to play. Suarez, the team’s captain, reported no discomfort afterward. “It didn’t stop me from practicing,” he said. “When the practice started they were very worried, and even kept asking me in the beginning if I felt OK, but I felt good.” Suarez has been a key component to the team’s defense, which has given up a league-low eight goals in 10 games. Chivas heads into the game on a three-game win streak and has outscored its opponents, 5-0. Chivas has played one fewer game than Houston but is in second place in the Western Conference, one point ahead of the Dynamo, which also is on a three-game winning streak but has not played since June 10.
