Dallas form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Toyota Stadium as Dallas have scored 16 goals to get 20 points from 10 games. The overall stats in the Major League Soccer are 6-2-2 (wins-draws-losses). Hopes of three in a row are alive for Dallas after consecutive victories at their own ground.

Dallas's previous game was also played at home, ending 2-0 versus Los Angeles FC (placed 2nd). The home side are looking to build on that result. The versatile forward Kamungo edged out all the other footballers in that game and was awarded a match rating of 7.44 out of 10. Kamungo scored one goal and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.

A defeat was the result before that one, 0-3 away at Austin.

This is expected to be a close game, with Dallas perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Dallas as a small favourite), we find 4 games. Dallas has won 3 of these, drawn 0 and lost 1.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Dallas as they are travelling to their away game against Colorado Rapids in the Major League Soccer. That match is four days after this one.

DC United form and stats

There's been little loot from DC United's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 11 away games in the Major League Soccer. DC United only have 3 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 2 draws. With two straight losses from their last two away games, DC United are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
