The Major League Soccer season is young and Dallas have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 2 draws and 1 defeat so far. Two points from the last two away games for Dallas, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.

Dallas are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the fixture against Houston Dynamo (placed 7th). Quignon came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Houston Dynamo last time out, making the manager Martínez feel like a tactical genius. Defender Martinez was the best team player with a rating of 7.1. Martinez won 1 of 3 duels.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found nine similar matches played by Dallas in our archives, and the results are: zero wins for Dallas, three draws and six defeats.
