Prediction: 2-0
Dallas FC
Sporting Kansas City will look to build on a 4-1 win over Portland Timbers when they take on Dallas on Thursday morning. The Wizards quickly bounced back from a massive 4-0 loss to St Louis City and it is no wonder the odds for home win have been dropping. There are no suspended players in the home, but all Tim Melia, William Agada, Kayden Pierre, and Kortne Thompson-Ford miss out with injuries.
The Toros, on the other hand, are undefeated in the previous five league matches. Dallas, though, are not regarded as good travellers, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on the home side. Maarten Paes is a major doubt, while all Sebastian Lletget, Paul Arriola, Geovane Jesus, and Tarik Scott are sidelined with injuries. In their last meeting in the MLS Dallas defeated Sporting 2-1, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.
Highlighted Player (Johnny Russell):
After spending the greatest part of his career at Derby County, Johnny Russell joined Sporting Kansas City in 2018. Russell was born in Glasgow, the capital of Scotland, on April 8, 1990 and he started his youth career at Dundee United.
The 178-cm tall attacker was producing fine performances for the Scottish side from 2007 to 2013 when he moved to Derby County. The Rams booked their place in the Championship on several occassions, but they eventually failed to secure promotion to the Premier League. As a result, Johnny Russell decided to move to MLS, signing a three-year deal with Sporting Kansas city on January 31, 2018.
The Scotland international made his debut for the Wizards in the opening match of the 2019 season against New York City. Speaking of his debut for the national team, he played his first game for Scotland in November 2014 in a 3-1 loss to England. His main position is left winger, but he is capable of playing as both centre-forward and right winger as well.
