FC Dallas host Seattle Sounders at the Toyota Stadium in the MLS on Saturday, looking to pick up only their second win of the 2024 season.
The Toros beat San Jose Earthquakes 2-1 at home on the opening day, courtesy of a stoppage-time winner from Dante Sealy.
Since then, the Texas outfit have failed to win a single match in the league, losing four in a row before drawing with St. Louis in their most recent outing.

The Greens crushed Montreal 5-0 last weekend, courtesy of a double from Raul Ruidiaz, coupled with second-half goals from Jordan Morris, Alex Roldan and Dylan Teves.
