A new month is upon us here as FC Dallas wraps up a two-game trip to Southern California against LAFC tonight.
Both clubs have their lineups in, so let’s break them down.
Quick thoughts
We knew going into tonight that Nkosi Tafari would be suspended but the formation stays 3-4-3. Omar Gonzalez replaces him in the middle of the defense between Sam Junqua and Sebastien Ibeagha, with Maarten Paes in goal behind them.
The midfield group is what we saw on Wednesday night against the Galaxy with Ema Twumasi and Marco Farfan on the wings, with Asier Illarramendi and Liam Fraser in the middle.
Up top, we’ll see Jesus Ferreira return to the lineup next to Patrickson Delgado. Petar Musa gets another start up top.
Who we could see in the second half
The bench looks pretty good tonight as Paul Arriola, Sebastian Lletget, Bernard Kamungo and Logan Farrington are all great options.
