After a week off, FC Dallas is back in action this weekend. Tonight they'll take on St. Louis CITY SC in Missouri.
Let’s dive into some notes, predictions and more.
FC Dallas Notes:
Key player for FC Dallas: Logan Farrington - The Big Dawg has been playing at a higher level in recent weeks and if Petar Musa is unable to go the full 90 minutes again this weekend, Farrington will have to step up and lead the attack against a St. Louis defense that has been very leaky.
All-time at St. Louis: FC Dallas has yet to win a game in all competitions at St. Louis. They’ve gone 0-2-1 in all three trips to Missouri.
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 1342 minutes.
