Team News

FC Dallas
Kansas City
  • Marco Farfan and Paxton Pomykal both should be fit to return, leaving Dallas with a full roster to choose from.
  • Alan Pulido is a doubt with a knee injury, whilst Gadi Kinda's knee injury will keep him out until mid April.
  • Johnny Russell and Logan Ndenbe are both expected to miss the next couple of games with hamstring injuries, while Tim Melia should also return before the end of the month.
  • Kortne Ford is expected to remain absent until May with an injured Achilles tendon.

Prediction

  • Dallas currently sit 6th in the Western Conference, having picked up 4 points from their opening 3 games. The highlight was a 3-1 trouncing of LA Galaxy, which went some way towards making things right after their 1-0 defeat to Minnesota in the opening game.
  • Sporting Kansas City have drawn two of their opening games, with both sides failing to score in games against LA Galaxy and Colorado Rapids following an opening day defeat to Portland. Whilst their defence may be quite solid, their lack of goals will surely be starting to concern Peter Vermes.
