Minnesota United vs FC Dallas Prediction and Betting Tips | April 30th 2023
The MLS returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Minnesota United and FC Dallas go head-to-head at Allianz Field on Sunday.
The Loons have lost their last three MLS matches and will head into the weekend looking to end this poor run.
Minnesota United secured their place in the fourth round of the US Open Cup on Wednesday when they picked up a 3-1 win over Detroit City FC.
Manager Adrian Heath will hope his side’s cup win can serve as a catalyst for a fine run of form as they return to the MLS, where they have lost their last three matches.
Minnesota have picked up three wins and two draws from their opening eight matches to collect 11 points and sit seventh in the Western Conference standings.
Meanwhile, FC Dallas were denied a third win on the spin last time out as they fell to a 3-1 loss against New York City FC at Yankee Stadium.
Nico Estévez’s men were previously on a three-game unbeaten run, including successive victories over Inter Miami and Real Salt Lake respectively.
With 14 points from nine matches, Dallas are currently fourth in the Western Conference table, level on points with fifth-placed San Jose Earthquakes.
