Vancouver Whitecaps vs FC Dallas Preview and Team News
Vancouver Whitecaps Team News
The Whitecaps are coming off a comeback 2-1 win over Orlando City SC, extending their winning streak to three matches across all competitions. Vancouver’s solid run of form doesn’t end there, as they’re riding an 11-game undefeated streak in all competitions (W7, D4), a stretch in which they moved to the top of the Western Conference standings while also winning the Canadian Championship.
Vancouver’s recent outings have also been extremely entertaining for neutral fans, with each of their previous four encounters featuring over 2.5 total goals and both teams scoring. With a solid W10, D4, L2 record in front of their fans at BC Place, the Caps should be confident in their chances of getting a positive result here.
“I hope people will come out and support the team. I think they really deserve it.”

The victory in this regular-season finale would allow them to finish the regular season in first place.
Further bolstering Vancouver’s case is the fact that they’ve scored a conference-leading 65 goals, and the 36 goals they’ve conceded also rank as the best record in the West. With the way they’ve been playing on both sides of the ball lately, it’s hard not to view the Whitecaps as the clear favourites heading into this regular-season finale.
Vancouver Whitecaps predicted lineup vs FC Dallas (4-2-3-1): Takaoka; Ocampo, Halbouni, Laborda, Johnson; Cubas, Berhalter; Sabbi, Müller, Ahmed; Ríos.
FC Dallas Team News
FC Dallas lost a game at the worst possible time. Even though they had experienced a solid turnaround in recent weeks, their 1-2 defeat to the Los Angeles Galaxy last time out means that the club have yet to clinch a playoff berth.
As things stand, Los Toros have 41 points and hold a one-point edge over the Colorado Rapids, who sit in 10th place and are currently out of the postseason altogether.

The math is simple: Dallas need to win here to secure a spot in the playoffs, but any other result would force them to depend on what happens in other fixtures. Winning on the road, however, is easier said than done for this squad, as they’re winless in their last six away matches in league play (D4, L2).
Dallas will have to fight for a playoff berth without one of their best players, as star forward Petar Musa, who has notched 18 goals and six assists in 2025, is suspended. That’s a huge blow for the team, given what’s at stake for them in this clash.
FC Dallas predicted lineup vs Vancouver Whitecaps (3-4-1-2): Paes; Urhoghide, Ibeagha, Abubakar; Moore, Cappis, Kaick, Kamungo; Delgado; Sarver, Julio.
Vancouver Whitecaps vs FC Dallas Main Match Info
- Date and Kickoff Time: Saturday, October 18, 2025, 9 PM EDT
- Stadium: BC Place
- Location: Vancouver, BC, Canada
- Last match: FC Dallas 0:1 Vancouver Whitecaps (March 15, 2025, MLS)
Vancouver Whitecaps vs FC Dallas Prediction, Odds
- Pick: Vancouver Whitecaps to lead at HT
- Odds: -104 (Tonybet)
- Correct score prediction: Vancouver Whitecaps 3-1 FC Dallas
The Whitecaps have been leading at the break in six of their last 10 matches across all competitions (HT: W6, D2, L2), although that wasn’t the case in their recent 2-1 win over Orlando City SC. That game was on the road, though, and they’ve proven to be a dominant team when playing in front of their fans at BC Place.
Thus, the Whitecaps should look to end the regular season on a strong note and could easily grab the lead before halftime against a Dallas side that have endured a fair share of struggles on the road this season. Los Toros have been trailing at the half in eight of their 16 away fixtures in league play (HT: W2, D6, L8).
The data also shows that the Whitecaps have been leading at halftime in nine of their 16 home encounters (HT: W9, D4, L3), and Dallas’s woeful road record in recent weeks doesn’t help their cause (D4, L1). Expect Vancouver to come out on top after the first 45 minutes.
Vancouver Whitecaps vs FC Dallas Betting Tip
- Pick: Over 2.5 total goals and both teams to score – yes
- Odds: -137 (Tonybet)
The recent meetings between the Whitecaps and Dallas haven’t featured many goals, with three of their last five ending with under 2.5. However, that should change here. Vancouver need to win to secure the top spot in the Western Conference, while Dallas need a victory to lock in a postseason berth. Both sides are in dire need of getting three points, which should result in an open contest.
The Whitecaps’ last five games across all competitions have seen both teams scoring, and the same thing has happened in seven of Los Toros’ last eight league outings. With the most recent four Dallas matches also featuring over 2.5 total goals, the potential for a high-scoring encounter is certainly there, especially when factoring in that Vancouver average a solid 2.56 goals scored per home fixture this season.
