FC Dallas vs Seattle Sounders: Predictions, Picks, Odds & Lineups

FC Dallas vs Seattle Sounders predicted formations

FC Dallas host Seattle Sounders at Toyota Stadium on Wednesday, October 14 (8:30 PM ET / 7:30 PM CT / 5:30 PM PT).

There’s no fresh team news to shake up either lineup here, with both FC Dallas and Seattle Sounders expected to field close to full-strength sides at Toyota Stadium. Petar Musa, who leads Dallas with 19 goals from 80 shots this season, should spearhead the home attack alongside Logan Farrington, who has chipped in 10 goals of his own. For Seattle, Albert RusnΓ‘k arrives full of creative confidence, setting up 71 chances created so far. Paul Rothrock and Cristian Roldan have both found the net five times too.

FC Dallas sit third in the Western Conference, firmly in the playoff picture. They’ve posted 47 points and a +7 goal difference from 28 games this season. The only blemish recently was a 3-2 loss at Charlotte FC, which snapped a run that had brought wins over LAFC and Portland Timbers either side of a draw with Austin FC. Seattle Sounders are seventh, also well inside the playoff race. They’ve collected 41 points and a +3 goal difference from the same number of games. They arrive full of momentum too, winners of four matches in a row. Expect a contest shaped by quality at both ends rather than chaos, with Dallas’s edge at home proving decisive.

    FC Dallas vs Seattle Sounders Prediction

    This should be a tight, cagey battle between two sides with plenty to play for. FC Dallas sit third in the Western Conference, Seattle seventh, and both remain firmly in the playoff mix with the regular season winding down. Dallas’s home record and Musa’s finishing should just nose them ahead in a game that won’t be short on quality at either end β€” expect FC Dallas to edge it 2-1.
