Cincinnati vs. Dallas preview

Cincinnati look to rebound from their shocking 4-2 defeat in Atlanta when they host a struggling FC Dallas side that's managing just one point from their last four MLS fixtures.

The home side has been formidable at TQL Stadium this season, remaining unbeaten while winning seven of their last ten league matches to climb to second place in the Eastern Conference.

Dallas's offensive woes have reached critical levels, with Eric Quill's men finding the net just once in their last four MLS outings since their 4-3 victory over Inter Miami back in April.

Cincinnati's potent attack, led by Kelvin Denkey's ten goals this campaign, should find opportunities against a Dallas defense that's shipping goals at an alarming rate, including a 5-0 thrashing at San Diego earlier this month.

While Cincinnati will be looking to Evander, their top playmaker with four assists, to unlock the Dallas defense, the visitors will be hampered by the absence of midfielder Sebastian Lletget among their key missing players.

With Dallas struggling to score and Cincinnati maintaining a strong home record, all signs point to a bounce-back performance for the hosts, though their recent defensive vulnerability suggests this could remain a tightly contested affair.
