FC Dallas are having a rough time. They have lost three of their last five games, including a heavy defeat, and they have only won once in that stretch. Columbus Crew are not perfect either, but they have won two of their last five and look a bit steadier, though they also suffered a big loss. When these two teams met recently, the games were tight and both ended in draws with a few goals.

This looks like a close match. Dallas are struggling for form, while Columbus have been slightly better but still inconsistent. Given that recent meetings between them were even and both teams have had mixed results, the most likely outcome is a draw.
