Dallas host Los Angeles at the Toyota Stadium in the MLS on Thursday, with neither side having their best season so far.
Dallas are currently 12th in the Western Conference table, with a win potentially taking them up to 11th. Marco Ferruzzi's side have been woeful of late, failing to win any of their last seven games. They will hope to turn things around with a win against LAFC on Thursday.
Los Angeles have also faltered recently. Bob Bradley's side have only won one of their last five games and are currently ninth in the Western Conference table. LAFC will know that this is a great chance for them to pick up all three points against a poor Dallas side.
Both teams have had disappointing seasons so far and will be looking to change their fortunes with a win on Thursday.
Dallas vs Los Angeles Head-to-Head
Los Angeles have a slight advantage based on the recent head-to-head record between the two sides, having won two of their last five meetings, with Dallas winning only one.
LAFC came away as 2-0 winners the last time the two sides met back in June. Goals from Carlos Vela and Latif Blessing were enough to secure the victory on the night.
