After two straight home matches, FC Dallas is back out on the road tonight. They'll be taking on Real Salt Lake in Utah.

Both teams have their lineups in, so let’s discuss them ahead of tonight’s match.

Quick thoughts

We discussed yesterday in the injury report that the big one for FC Dallas would be Maarten Paes. He's out on international duty, which means we see the Homegrown debut of Michael Collodi tonight in goal.

His defensive group will be the same one we've seen the last four weeks of the regular season as Marco Farfan and Shaq Moore are on the wings, with Osaze Urhoghide and Sebastien Ibeagha in the middle.

The midfield group sees Leo Chu earning his first start with FC Dallas. He'll be opposite of Patrickson Delgado, with Lucho Acosta in the middle. Sebastian Lletget and Ramiro Benetti will continue to be the defensive group behind them.

Up top will be the club's leading scorer through four games, Petar Musa.

Who we could see off the bench

Maybe we see Kaick off the bench for his debut? Maybe. Show is also available despite what Eric Quill has told us in recent days with his injuries.

Bernard Kamungo, Tsiki Ntsabeleng, Pedrinho, and Logan Farrington are good options off the bench.
