After a big win in Vancouver last Sunday night, Dallas rolls into this week’s match against Portland looking to clinch a playoff spot at the expense of their Western Conference foe.
Portland currently sit fourth place in the Western Conference with 47 points. They are three points ahead of sixth place Seattle and six points above the LA Galaxy and the red line for the playoffs. A win against Dallas would not move them up the standings as they are three points behind LAFC, but a loss could see them tumble down to fifth or a tie for sixth.
