FC Dallas

FC Dallas enters Sunday’s road trip to San Jose sitting at 5-4-4 with a concerning trend: two losses in their last three matches, including a 3-2 home collapse against Vancouver yesterday. At 1.46 points per game, they’re treading water in the Western Conference, and the LWWLL stretch reveals inconsistency when it matters. The bright spot came at home against Real Salt Lake on May 10, a 3-1 win that showed attacking potential, but defensive lapses have become routine. Away form is a question mark: they’ve won just once on the road this stretch (2-0 at New York) while dropping matches at Seattle and now need to reverse course at San Jose. Bettors should note Dallas has surrendered multiple goals in back-to-back outings, signaling vulnerability. The Earthquakes matchup offers a chance to stabilize, but without addressing the defensive brittleness that cost them at home, backing Dallas on the road carries real risk. This is a team with talent but no margin for error.
