Dallas and Vancouver Whitecaps should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

7 - 9 - 22 with 39-80. What does this mean? Well, these are the statistics for Vancouver Whitecaps when playing on grass like they will do today. Wins - draws- losses and goals scored-conceded. Vancouver Whitecaps play their home games on artifical turf so that's why we provide these numbers.

These teams have little in common geographically as Vancouver Whitecaps have to travel 3500 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Dallas form and stats

2-4-0 (win-draw-lost) are the Major League Soccer numbers at home for Dallas so far this season.

Dallas's previous game was a Major League Soccer match also played at home, ending 2-1 versus New England. The home side are looking to build on that result. The attacker Ricardo Pepi was "man of the match" for Dallas with a rating of 8.61/10. Pepi scored two goals, hit the woodwork once, hit one key pass and dribled passed the opponent 2 of 2 times.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Los Angeles FC (0-2).

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Dallas handle that role? We have found eleven games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are six wins, five draws and zero defeats.

The manager L. Gonzalez will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to LA Galaxy in only three days.

A decent goal production from Dallas in their home games so far, with 10 goals from 6 league matches. On the other hand, Dallas have conceded 6 goals.

Vancouver Whitecaps form and stats

There's been little loot from Vancouver Whitecaps's travels as they have only collected 2 points from 6 away games in the Major League Soccer. Vancouver Whitecaps only have 0 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 2 draws.

Vancouver has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Seattle Sounders for a Major League Soccer game that ended a draw (2-2). The attacker Cristián Dájome got a match rating of 8.44 in that game. Dájome scored one goal, served one assist, hit one key pass and dribled passed the opponent 3 of 5 times.

Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus LA Galaxy.

Vancouver are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, one draw and five defeats. From a total of seven matches.

A quick return to home after this game, as Vancouver are hosting Real Salt Lake in the Major League Soccer only three days away.

Vancouver are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 6 away goals from 6 games (in the league). The Vancouver manager M. Dos Santos has some worries about the defense as 13 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Dallas three wins, four draws and Vancouver Whitecaps three victories. As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.
