Match Preview

It will be an interesting end to the regular season for both FC Dallas and New York City, as both remain in strong positions for a playoff finish. FC Dallas will have the important home field advantage this Friday, as they look to record a second straight victory, and extend their unbeaten sequence to three matches.

However, FC Dallas’s poor home record is hard to ignore this weekend. They have won just 18% of their matches at Toyota Stadium, and have suffered defeats in a staggering 64% of their fixtures at home. They have also scored just 1.09 goals per game at home, which is significantly lower than their average of 1.67 on the road.

New York continue to sit in a promising position in the Eastern Conference, but they will need to bounce back to form after a recent draw against Sporting KC. But, it could be worth noting that they have avoided defeat in three of their last four matches.

A major issue could come in the form of their poor away record, as NYC have won just 17% of their matches, and they have suffered defeats in 42% of their matches. Attacking issues have been a notable concern this season in their away matches, as New York have scored an average of just 0.92 goals per 90.
