Dallas will face Vancouver Whitecaps at Toyota Stadium on Saturday in game two of the 2025 Major League Soccer playoffs. The home side enjoyed a positive campaign in the regular season, beating Vancouver 2-1 on Decision Day to pip Portland Timbers to the final automatic playoff spot in the Western Conference. However, they marked their return to the playoffs with a 3-0 defeat to the Caps on Sunday night and must win on home turf this weekend if they are to avoid a second consecutive first-round exit.
Vancouver Whitecaps were largely undone by an early red card in their 2-1 defeat to Dallas on the final day of the regular season. They, however, demonstrated their true quality when the sides met again in game one of the playoffs last weekend, claiming an emphatic win courtesy of goals from Daniel Rios, Thomas Müller, and Kenji Cabrera.
The visitors have been eliminated in the first round in each of their last three appearances in the MLS playoffs but are now one win away from breaking that streak.
