Competition: MLS

Market: FC Dallas to beat Minnesota United and both teams to score

Odds: 8/5 @ Bet 365

Looking to extend their advantage at the top of the Western Conference, FC Dallas will be hoping to improve on their recent form when they welcome Minnesota United to Toyota Stadium in the early hours of Sunday morning.

Starting with the hosts, although they may have recently fallen off the pace, FC Dallas still remain the team to beat in the Western Conference. After 23 MLS games this season, the hosts have won 12, drawn six and lost just five, scoring 37 and conceding 30 in return. With a points tally of 42, Dallas currently sit three points clear of Sporting KC and hold a 13 point buffer over their visitors. As for their recent form, although they have lost their last two MLS matches on the bounce, Dallas have now only lost one of their last 21 matches at Toyota Stadium. Although they haven’t kept a clean sheet in their last seven, six of their last seven home wins have seen both teams score.

As for the visitors, after failing to secure a playoff position last season, inconsistency has been Minnesota’s major problem this time around. After 24 MLS games this season, the visitors have won nine, drawn two and lost 13, scoring 38 and conceding 38 in return, they now hold the worst defensive record in the Western Conference. With a points tally of 29, they now sit six points adrift of the playoffs. As for their recent form, Minnesota are now without a win in their last three and while they have scored in their last seven in a row, they have shipped eight in their last three.
