FC Dallas vs Toronto FC Prediction

FC Dallas have home advantage in their favor and that gives them a slight edge, although Toronto FC are capable of getting something out of the game.

This being the first competitive game for both sides in over two months means they might take a while to get going. We are backing the spoils to be shared in a low-scoring draw.

Prediction: FC Dallas 1-1 Toronto FC
