The 2023 calendar for all Major League Soccer teams has been rather odd. We knew that going into the year, things would be different as FC Dallas and the other teams would have to deal with congested schedules in the spring before the start of the new Leagues Cup.
Following the end of that tournament, most teams had anywhere between two and four weeks off from league play. For FC Dallas, they ended up with a 20-day layover between games.
After being back in the thick of things last week with most teams, including FC Dallas, playing three games in seven or eight days, most teams will now be off this coming week due to the international window for FIFA games.
