Analysis

Our model puts a FC Dallas win at 48.2% in this MLS fixture — a moderate lean. Expected goals run 1.86 to 1.39.

Evenly rated

There is almost nothing between these two on rating — 1519 against 1507, a gap of 12 points. Fixtures this evenly matched are where a model has least to say: the probabilities below are honest, but they are close to a coin weighted only slightly.

Margin risk

Our blowout flag reads 64.7%: more than half of all simulations end with a three-goal margin or more. Finishing gaps that wide make the scoreline far less predictable than the winner.
