FC Dallas were handed a lifeline as they held Seattle to a scoreless draw on Wednesday, and Portland got blanked too by the New York Red Bulls. Dallas sits 7th in the West (at the time of writing), and has a tough home game against NYCFC. NYC has climbed to top of the East and are a very good 6-4-4 away from Yankee Stadium. Dallas will need a victory and NYC will be looking to try to get the #1 seed for the playoffs, so the atmosphere should be electric tonight.
