Minnesota United host FC Dallas at Allianz Field on Wednesday, September 9 (8:30 PM ET / 7:30 PM CT / 5:30 PM PT).

    Minnesota United vs FC Dallas Prediction

    Signal’s model sees Minnesota United squeezing past FC Dallas 2-1 at Allianz Field, with Yeboah’s finishing edge just enough to outweigh Musa’s response for the visitors. It’s a result that would ease Minnesota United’s push from ninth in the West, while Dallas remain firmly in the playoff picture in fifth regardless of the final score.
