Dallas host SJ Earthquakes at Toyota Stadium in Frisco on October 25, 2026, in a Major League Soccer meeting between teams ranked third and fourth respectively. Both have improved on last season: Dallas finished seventh then, while SJ Earthquakes were outside the playoff places. With only three points separating them, this fixture offers a chance to strengthen their positions late in the regular season. Dallas bring a strong home run into the match, but the visitors arrive unbeaten in nine games. Their recent results suggest a close contest between two sides that have proved difficult to beat.

Dallas Recent Form and Key Stats

Dallas drew 2-2 with Houston Dynamo on October 18. Across their last five matches, they have recorded two wins, two draws and one defeat, scoring an average of 1.2 goals per game and conceding 1.0. Their wider Major League Soccer record stands at 14 wins, nine draws and seven losses, with season averages of 1.8 goals scored and 1.6 conceded.

Home form is an important part of the Dallas case. They are unbeaten in five consecutive home matches, taking 13 points from a possible 15, and have not conceded in their last three at home. That defensive sequence contrasts with their season-long goals-conceded average and gives them a clear foundation for this meeting. Dallas have also seen more than 7.5 corners in 20 of their last 21 MLS matches, although that trend alone says little about which side will create the better chances.

Another notable Dallas statistic concerns goals after the interval: both teams have scored in the second half in 12 of their last 19 league matches. It points to a pattern of games in which neither side has necessarily been finished as an attacking force at half-time. Against an opponent on a long unbeaten run, Dallas will be looking to preserve their recent home solidity while finding a way past a side that has repeatedly taken points on the road.

SJ Earthquakes Recent Form and Key Stats

SJ Earthquakes also drew their most recent match, finishing 1-1 against Nashville SC on October 18. Their last five games have produced one win and four draws, with averages of 1.6 goals scored and 1.2 conceded. They have gone nine matches without defeat overall, a longer current unbeaten stretch than Dallas bring into this fixture.

The visitors have avoided defeat in each of their last five away matches, though four of those five ended in draws. That record underlines both their resilience and the frequency with which their trips have ended without a winner. Dallas’ home results make this a demanding visit, but SJ Earthquakes have shown that they can keep collecting points away from home even when a victory does not follow.

Across the MLS season, SJ Earthquakes have 13 wins, nine draws and eight defeats. They average 1.7 goals scored and 1.4 conceded per match, figures that sit close to Dallas’ attacking output while indicating a slightly lower goals-conceded average. The contrast between the teams’ recent sequences is particularly relevant here: Dallas have been strong at home, whereas SJ Earthquakes have made a habit of avoiding defeat both home and away.

Dallas vs SJ Earthquakes Match Analysis

There is little to separate the sides in the five-match head-to-head summary: Dallas have two wins, one draw and two defeats. In those meetings, Dallas have averaged 2.2 goals scored and 2.4 conceded per game. The latest encounter, on May 17, 2026, finished 2-3, adding a recent high-scoring result to the picture. Across the broader 52-match series cited in the match context, SJ Earthquakes have 19 wins to Dallas’ 11.

This preview presents a genuine clash of strengths. Dallas’ five-match unbeaten home run and three successive home clean sheets make their defensive record at Toyota Stadium difficult to overlook. At the same time, the visitors’ nine-game unbeaten streak and five away matches without defeat give them reason to approach the trip with confidence. The four draws in their last five away fixtures also make another closely contested result plausible.

Goals remain a significant theme despite Dallas’ recent home clean sheets. Both teams scored in Dallas’ 2-2 draw with Houston Dynamo and SJ Earthquakes’ 1-1 draw with Nashville SC, while the season averages show each side scoring more than 1.5 goals per match and conceding more than one. The 2-3 result in their latest head-to-head adds to that case, although Dallas’ three straight home shutouts are an important counterpoint. With both teams bringing extended unbeaten records in the relevant setting, whether Dallas can maintain that defensive run may be one of the match’s decisive questions.
