FC Dallas end their two-game road trip at Sporting Kansas City tonight, a place they haven’t won in since Usher had us falling in love with the DJ... again. SKC are win-less in their last four (but three of those were on the road) and are still very strong at home. However Dallas is one of four teams in the league with a winning record away from home, so iff there was ever a time to change that, this would be it.

Here are our staff predictions against SKC:
FCD vs SEA
Name | Result for FCD | FCD Score | Opposition Score | Commentary |
---|---|---|---|---|
Name | Result for FCD | FCD Score | Opposition Score | Commentary |
Ben Lyon | Win | 2 | 1 | The smug comments from Sounders fans this week... |
Jack Rous | Win | 2 | 0 | How do they do it? Ricardo Pepi |
Jason Poon | Loss | 0 | 2 | It's been fun but I'm not seeing a way out of Seattle with a win. |
Jeff Loftin | Loss | 1 | 2 | Close loss after controversial play at the other end which mysteriously doesn't get VAR treatment. |
Mohammad Bushnaq | Loss | 1 | 2 | Valiant effort but Dallas falls short in the Pacific NW for their revenge bid. |
Nathan Hill | Draw | 2 | 2 | FC Dallas advance on PKs and claim the Cascadia Cup. Goals from Jara and Pepi. |
Ryan Scanlon | Loss | 1 | 3 | Seattle’s quality and combination play will be too much for FC Dallas which will not let us get away with what we pulled off against Portland. Michael Barrios gives us a glimmer of hope with a goal before Jordan Morris and Nick Lodeiro put this out of reach. |
What do you guys think? We’re a bit optimistic here, and why not? Though some share my doom and gloom too. How about you guys? Think we’ll finally break the curse?
