The Galaxy have taken seven points from their last three home games against FC Dallas (W2 D1), including a win and a draw last season. LA Galaxy has lost only two of its last 13 home matches against Dallas (W8 D3) dating back to the start of the 2011 season.
The Galaxy’s last four matches have seen a total of three goals, with no match having more than one (two 1-0 wins, one 1-0 loss, one 0-0 draw). The last team to play five straight games with fewer than two goals in each game in a single season was Philadelphia in August-October 2013.
FC Dallas extended its unbeaten run to eight games (W5 D3) after a 2-0 victory over the Sounders on Saturday. All three away matches in that time have been draws, however, as Dallas hasn’t won on the road since August, failing to record a victory in its last 10 away matches (D6 L4).
The Galaxy and FC Dallas have the joint-best defense in MLS this season, allowing just seven goals through 10 games. Los Angeles has allowed fewer goals at this stage of a season only twice (2 in 2010, 6 in 1999) while FC Dallas has let in fewer after 10 games just once (6 in 1999).
Jesús Ferreira has scored seven times in his first 10 games this season, including in the win on Saturday against Seattle. Only Jason Kreis (8 in 1999) has scored more goals in the first 10 games of a season in Dallas’ MLS history.
