Where Can I Watch?
Why Bet on FC Dallas?
FC Dallas is the 10th-placed team in the West and is slightly off from being at the playoffs as of right now, with 8 wins, 6 draws, and 9 losses.
The Cowboys come into this contest in pretty poor form, collecting just a few points in their last matches as their campaign drifts toward a conclusion. This is remarkable considering that last season they were one of the best teams in the regular stage, and that form extended to this edition’s first weeks, when they were fourth.
They, however, have the home field in their favor and are looking to pick up the pace as they push toward the front of the scoreboards.
Why Bet on Austin FC?
Austin FC is the 7th-placed team in the Western Conference as of right now, coming in with 9 wins, 5 draws, and 10 losses so far. Even if that doesn’t sound like such a hot streak in their season, it has them in the playoff spots.
The Black & Greens have every chance of going up this MLS season, but they have to pick up the pace from an up-and-down streak as of their latest 7 matches, in which their momentum has been slowing down.
They will need to get on their A-game to keep their spot for playoffs safe.
Final Betting Analysis: FC Dallas vs. Austin FC
FC Dallas is one of the most exciting sides to watch in the MLS at the moment. They have both scored and conceded during the same 90 minutes in 14 of their previous 17 matches.
Given that Austin FC has done the same in seven of their last eight away games at this level, it would come as a bit of a surprise if either gets a clean sheet.
We expect a very competitive match with a 3-2 winning score for FC Dallas as the crowd goes wild.
Go for a victory for the locals at +103. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $103 for a total payout of $203.
