Bitesize Prediction: FC Dallas vs DC United – 07/05/23

Competition: MLS

Market: FC Dallas Victory

Rating: 6/5 @

Eager to secure back-to-back MLS victories in the early hours of Wednesday morning, FC Dallas will host DC United at Toyota Stadium.

Starting with the hosts, managing to get back to winning ways over the weekend with a stellar performance at home, Dallas should feel a golden opportunity here. Eventually earning a 2-0 win over Los Angeles, Nico Estevez's men find themselves a standout candidate to claim another play-off ticket in 2023. back-to-back MLS wins since the middle of May, Dallas should be excited about their continued success in front of their own fans. Including their return from the June international break with a 2-0 win over St. Louis, the midweek hosts have lost just one of their last nine consecutive encounters at Toyota Stadium – a run that dates back to the February 25. It should also be noted that Dallas hasn't scored a single home goal in over 250 minutes of action.

As for the visitors, while DC United may have claimed a much-appreciated boost against DC United last week, it appears to have been only a small bright spot for the team by Wayne Rooney. Making an immediate return to defeat at the weekend after losing 2-0 at the hands of Nashville, the former Manchester United icon finds growing pressure on his shoulders. Along with marking their return from the international break with a 3-1 battery against Atlanta, the Washington-based side have now lost each of their last four domestic encounters. Likewise, recording just a pair of wins since late May, DC could face a tough midweek challenge. Hit by a 2-0 loss on their last trip to the Toyota Stadium in 2019, a similar home win can be found here at attractive odds.
