Sporting Kansas City vs FC Dallas Game Preview

Sporting Kansas City host FC Dallas at Sporting Park on Halloween, and the gap between these two in the Western Conference standings could hardly be wider.

Sporting KC sit 15th in the West with 22 points and are fighting to avoid finishing dead last in the overall Supporters' Shield standings. Pride is about all that's left.

FC Dallas sit second in the Western Conference with 54 points, chasing a top-four seed and home-field advantage in the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs.

History backs the visitors too. FC Dallas have won their last 4 games against Kansas City in all competitions, and the moneyline has them as favorites.

Sporting Kansas City vs FC Dallas Recent Results

Sporting KC are in a full-blown slump, having lost their last 4 games in Major League Soccer, most recently away at Minnesota United. André Luiz remains the bright spot, with a goal or assist 7 times across his last 9 Major League Soccer outings, and counterattacks and long-range shooting are the only real threats this team carries.

FC Dallas have won 6 of their last 10 games, though they arrive off a defeat to an in-form Columbus Crew. Petar Musa is the engine: across his last 9 Major League Soccer appearances, he has scored or assisted in 6, and Dallas' knack for creating opportunities through individual skill makes them dangerous against anyone.

Our Prediction

Our Sporting Kansas City vs FC Dallas prediction is an FC Dallas win. Kansas City have picked up just one point from their last 18 available, and a back line with this many bodies on the treatment table is not built to contain Petar Musa and company. Sporting KC can land a punch or two on the counter, but Dallas have far more quality in the final third and should leave Sporting Park with the points.

Sporting Kansas City vs FC Dallas Talking Points

The headline matchup is Petar Musa against a Sporting KC defense in freefall. The FC Dallas forward has 22 regular-season goals and is right in the thick of the MLS Golden Boot race. Kansas City, meanwhile, have conceded a club-record 80 goals this season and have yet to keep a clean sheet at Sporting Park.
