New England vs Dallas Prediction & Preview
Preview
The United States Major League Soccer is set to witness an exciting encounter on Saturday, July 20th, as New England hosts Dallas at Gillette Stadium. The home team, led by coach Caleb Porter, will be looking to bounce back from their recent defeat against Philadelphia Union, which ended in a 5-1 loss.
In their last outing, New England struggled defensively, conceding five goals away from home. This has been a recurring theme for the team, as they average 3.2 goals conceded per game. However, playing at Gillette Stadium may provide some solace, as they score an average of 1.33 goals per game on their home turf.
Dallas, under coach Peter Luccin, comes into this match with a confidence-boosting 3-1 win over Austin in their last game. The away team has been impressive in front of goal, scoring an average of 2.2 goals per game, and 1.5 goals per game when playing on the road.
The two teams have a recent history of competitive matches, with Dallas holding a slight edge in their last five head-to-head encounters, winning two games to New England's one, with two draws. However, it's worth noting that when these teams met at Gillette Stadium on March 5th, 2022, New England emerged victorious with a narrow 1-0 win.
Bet
Considering the performance and goals stats for each team, I would recommend a bet on Over 2.5 goals at odds of 1.66. Both teams have shown an ability to score goals, with Dallas averaging 2.2 goals per game and New England scoring 1 goal per game. Additionally, New England's porous defense, which concedes an average of 3.2 goals per game, could lead to a high-scoring encounter.
While New England are favorites to win at odds of 1.95, the value lies in the Over 2.5 goals market, which offers a more attractive return on investment given the teams' scoring tendencies.
