Our prediction for this MLS match:
FC Dallas will be aiming to build on a thrilling 4-3 win over DC United when they take on Colorado Rapids on Sunday morning. The Toros have been scoring goals for fun in MLS of late and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Midfielder Paul Arriola serves a one-game ban, while all Liam Fraser, Paxton Pamykal, and Geovane Jesus are sidelined with injuries.
The Rapids, on the other hand, did well to beat Real Salt Lake at home in their last league match, but beating Dallas on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, both teams should be happy with one point from Sunday’s encounter. Midfielder Kevin Cabral remains in the recovery room, but he should be the only absentee in the away team. In their last meeting at Toyota Stadium the two sides played out a 1-1 draw.
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.
