FC Dallas looks to get over their frustrating draw against the Vancouver Whitecaps on Sunday night as they take on another Cascadia side in the Portland Timbers.
Portland is coming off a disappointing result of their own this past Wednesday as well, as they lost 2-1 at Montreal.
FC Dallas notes:
Last time against Portland. The two sides met back in April as FC Dallas got the upper hand in the season series with a 2-1 win thanks to a penalty kick from Reto Ziegler.
Key player for FC Dallas - Matt Hedges - FCD will need their veteran leader to step up and contain Brian Fernandez and what he brings to the Timbers’ attack.
