Our prediction for this MLS match:
Dallas will be aiming to recover from a 3-2 loss to Seattle Sounders when they take on FC Cincinnati on Sunday morning. The Toros have been scoring goals for fun at home of late and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. All Paxton Pomykal, Alan Velasco, and Geovane Jesus are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Orange and Blue, on the other hand, suffered a 2-1 loss to New England Revolution in their last league match. As Dallas defeated Cincinnati 3-1 in their last meeting at Toyota Stadium, home win should be considered. Midfielder Obinna Nwobodo is banned for the match, while defender Miles Robinson is on international duty. Both Matthew Miazga and Corey Baird are out of contention with injuries for the away team. Nick Hagglund is pushing for a start.
Highlighted Team (FC Dallas):
Despite making it to the 2010 MLS Cup final, Dallas eventually failed to win the domestic trophy. The Toros (Bulls) were beaten by Colorado in the final played at BMO Field in Toronto and you should bear in mind that the Rapids scored the winner in the extra time.
That was the first and only time Dallas participated in the MLS Cup final, but in 2016 the club won the Supporters’ Shield and the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup. The Toros play their home games at Toyota Stadium, the venue that was opened in August, 2005. The stadium’s original name was Pizza Hut Park, but in September 2013 it was renamed as Toyota Stadium after Pizza Hut Park left as a main sponsor.
FC Dallas wear red shits with white stripes when playing at home, while their secondary colors are white and blue. Former Ajax and River Plate ace Mauro Rosales, who joined the Toyota Stadium outfit in 2016, is regarded as one of the club most significant stars.
