Two of the bottom three teams in the Western Conference will face each other at Toyota Stadium on Sunday as Dallas host the Vancouver Whitecaps.
Both sides finally got some good fortune last weekend as Dallas beat the Eastern Conference-leading New England Revolution 2-1, and the Caps drew 2-2 with the top-seeded team in Major League Soccer at the moment, the Seattle Sounders.
We say: Dallas 2-1 Vancouver Whitecaps
Dallas are unbeaten at Toyota Stadium in 15 consecutive fixtures, and the Whitecaps have never taken three points from the Toros on their home turf.
Both teams caused massive upsets last week, but Dallas seem to be better equipped to handle a tense game than the Caps, who have unravelled in the late stages of matches this season.

The Colorado Rapids will hope to celebrate the 4th of July by handing the Seattle Sounders their first defeat of the season on Sunday when both teams face off at Dick's Sporting Goods Park.
The Rapids are currently in fourth in the Western Conference table after losing 3-1 last week to Sporting Kansas City, while Seattle equalised with less than 20 minutes remaining versus the Vancouver Whitecaps, settling for a 2-2 draw.
We say: Colorado Rapids 2-1 Seattle Sounders
All good things must come to an end, and the Sounders may finally meet their match when they face a Rapids team who beat them 3-1 last season on home soil and who are nearly as deep at every position as Seattle.
The Rapids have been lethal in the final third at home, with three goals in each of their last three games at Dick's Sporting Goods Park coming from eight different players.

LA Galaxy vs. Kansas (Monday, 3.30am)

Second place in the Western Conference will be on the line on Sunday as the Los Angeles Galaxy play host to Sporting Kansas City at Dignity Health Tennis Center.
Both teams are riding two-game winning streaks heading into this fixture, with the Galaxy beating the San Jose Earthquakes 3-1 last weekend, while KC got an 87th-minute winner to edge Los Angeles FC 2-1.
We say: Los Angeles Galaxy 3-3 Sporting Kansas City
These are two offensively talented teams who can score goals in bunches, with the Wizards getting a nice balance of production while the Galaxy rely heavily on Chicharito, who seems to be getting better every game, which is a frightening thought for opposing teams.
All of the KC losses this year have come away from home, but they have fared well in Los Angeles, winning two of their last three fixtures there, and they will be eager to erase the memory of the 7-2 defeat which they suffered against LA in their previous meeting in 2019.
