Texas Derby stakes high as Austin host Dallas
FC Dallas travel to Q2 Stadium desperate to cement their top-six standing while Austin look to translate recent cup success back into league momentum.
Austin FC return to MLS action following a high-confidence run in the Leagues Cup, where they recently dispatched Puebla 3-0 and saw Myrto Uzuni net a first-half hat-trick. However, their league form remains a concern, having suffered back-to-back defeats against Colorado and Houston, leaving them with four losses in their last five MLS outings.
FC Dallas arrive sitting 6th on 27 points, locked in a battle to maintain their European qualification spot with 28 games remaining in the season. Peter Luccin’s men have proved difficult to beat lately, losing just once in their last five matches, though a recent 0-0 draw against LA Galaxy highlighted a slight dip in their previous high-scoring away form.
