FC Dallas vs Seattle Sounders: Preview, game notes, lineup predictions and how to watch
FC Dallas is back home this weekend to host an old rival, the Seattle Sounders.
Both teams are off to a slow start to the 2024 season, with just a single win each. Seattle picked up their first win of the season last weekend in a blowout win over Montreal at home, while FC Dallas picked up their first shutout of the year in a scoreless draw at St. Louis.
Key player for FC Dallas: Petar Musa—It is no secret that FC Dallas needs Musa to start scoring. While Seattle is a tough team to deal with, this feels like the right time for him to get at least one goal to break his drought.
Last year against Seattle: The two sides drew both of their regular season games against one another before squaring off in the best of three, Round One series in the MLS Cup Playoffs, where Seattle won both of their home games to advance.
Homegrown clock: In 2024, FC Dallas Homegrowns (Dante Sealy, Paxton Pomykal, Jesús Ferreira) played a total of 726 minutes and made 10 appearances.
Games missed due to injuries: The injury watch continues into another season. So far, 34 games have been missed due to injuries this season.
Potential Lineup:
Based on Nico Estevez’s comments on Thursday, we will probably see a similar group that we saw in St. Louis a week ago.
Paes; Junqua, Tafari, Ibeagha; Sealy, Fraser, Delgado, Arriola; Lletget, Ansah; Musa
By the Numbers: FC Dallas after six games

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Dylan Holloway had a hat trick and added an assist in his return from a sprained ankle, Joel Hofer made 23 saves and the St. Louis Blues came off the Olympic break to beat the Seattle Kraken 5-1 on Thursday night.
St. Louis Blues 5, Seattle Kraken 1: Box score
Jordan Kyrou and Holloway — activated from injured reserve before the game — scored in a 23-second span early in the second period to give St. Louis a 3-1 lead.
Pius Suter added a goal and two assists to help the Blues end a three-game losing streak.
Holloway completed St. Louis’ first hat trick of the season with 3:01 left, scoring into an empty net for his 11th of the season.
Kaapo Kakko tied it at 1 for Seattle in the first period, and Philipp Grubauer stopped 26 shots. The Kraken were coming off a 4-1 loss in Dallas on Wednesday night.
Kyrou made it 2-1 at 1:12 of the second off a feed from Pavel Buchnevich on a break. Holloway poked the puck past Grubauer off a scramble at 1:35. Suter scored at 1:56 of the third.

Projected Lineup: Feb. 26 vs. Seattle | St. Louis Blues
The St. Louis Blues are back in action as they host the Seattle Kraken on Thursday at Enterprise Center (7 p.m., FanDuel Sports Network Midwest, 101 ESPN).
It will be the team’s first game since Feb. 4, and Jim Montgomery said the squad is ready to get back to work.
“Yeah, I think everybody is,” the head coach said. “I mean, you can tell. Guys were anxious today, but it’s like ‘enough of practicing against each other, it’s time to play a game.’”
Captain Brayden Schenn, who missed Wednesday’s practice with an illness, took the morning skate and is expected to play. Dylan Holloway (ankle), who has played just one game since Dec. 12, will make his return to the lineup as well.
Robert Thomas has taken a leave of absence due to a personal matter. He’s expected to return to the team on Friday.
Additionally Jack Finley will make his Blues debut. Finley – who is the son of former Blue Jeff Finley and was born in St. Louis – was claimed off waivers by the team on Feb. 7.
“It was a dream of mine to play for this team,” Finley said. “It was a big part of my childhood, big part of my family’s life. So definitely full-circle moment and proud to be a Blue.”
Jeff, who played defense for the Blues from 1998-2004, will be in the building Thursday night to see his son don the jersey he wore for so many years.
“He was excited,” Jack said about his dad. “Maybe more excited than me. He loved this organization, loved this city… He’s excited to be back.”
