FC Dallas looks for its first win away against the Portland Timbers since the 2016 season on Saturday night. A win would push Dallas' unbeaten mark to seven games and also give the club its first three-game winning streak in five years. 

Let’s dive into some notes, predictions and more. 

## **FC Dallas Notes:**

**Key player for FC Dallas: Petar Musa -** The Croatian striker is two goals away from tying the club's all-time regular season scoring mark. If he is going to break that record, adding some goals in a road game like this would be a big deal. 

**All-time at Portland**: Dallas has struggled in Portland during the regular season, going 1-8-5, with the last win coming in the 2016 season. 

**Homegrown clock**: The Homegrown minutes are starting to tick up again. Paxton Pomykal, Tarik Scott, Anthony Ramirez, Michael Collodi, Nolan Norris and Josh Torquato have played a combined 1358 minutes. 

### **Notable season stats**:

- Anderson Julio recorded the fastest Dallas speed this season at 35.28  
kph (21.92 mph), ranking No. 36 in MLS and is tied for fourth in MLS  
with three counterattack goals.
- Sebastien Ibeagha is eighth in MLS with 78 aerial challenges won. He  
is also tied for 8th in clearances (50).
- Shaq Moore ranks No. 46 in MLS for distance covered with 288.36 km  
(179.18 miles).
- Petar Musa's 16 goals scored in 2025, tied for 7th best in MLS. His 15 goals from open play (tied for second), only behind Lionel Messi.
- Dallas ranks fifth in MLS in aerial duels won (438) and tied for first in  
clearances (282).

goals from open play with 40.
