  "textContent": "FC Dallas completes a three-game homestand as they host Minnesota United.\n\nLineups are in from both sides. Let’s dive into what Eric Quill’s starting group looks like, who is on the bench, and who we believe will see minutes later on in this one.\n\n## What Changed From Last Match\n\nThe big one up top, Santiago Moreno gets his first start next to Petar Musa. Logan Farrington goes to the bench for this one.\n\nNolan Norris also returns to the lineup over Deedson (Shaq Moore will push out wide to the wings).\n\n## FC Dallas Lineup Notes:\n\n### Starting XI\n\nFormation: 3-4-3\n\nST\n**Moreno**\n\nST\n**Musa**\n\nCAM\n**Valiente**\n\nLWB\n**C Moore**\n\nCM\n**Kaick**\n\nCM\n**Cappis**\n\nRWB\n**Johansson**\n\nLCB\n**Norris**\n\nCB\n**Urhoghide**\n\nRCB\n**Ibeagha**\n\nGK\n**Collodi**\n\n### Bench\n\n  * **Jonathan Sirois** GK\n  * **Lalas Abubakar** DF\n  * **Deedson** DF\n  * **Patrickson Delgado** MF\n  * **Ran Binyamin** MF\n  * **Ramiro** MF\n  * **Sam Sarver** FW\n  * **Logan Farrington** FW\n  * **Nicholas Simmonds** FW\n\n\n\nBig D Soccer has covered FC Dallas since 2009.

I’d expect to see Deedson, Delgado, Binyamin, Ramiro and Farrington off the bench tonight. But if things are going well, let’s not sleep on Simmonds and Sarver getting some minutes.\n\n### **Key Question Heading Into Kickoff**\n\n _Can FC Dallas wrap up the homestand on a positive note?_\n\nTwo straight disappointing draws at home have lead FC Dallas to what is easily a must-win game tonight against the Loons. The mood around the team has been that they know they’re better than they’ve shown in recent weeks, but the execution of that hasn’t been there for some reason or another. Tonight will be telling if those disappointing draws were a blip or more of a trend that we’re going to see the club fall under as they being to pick up more road games in the coming weeks.\n\n* * *\n\n****Availability Report****\n\nSuspended: none\nSeason-ending injury list: Kaka Scabin (knee)\n****Out**** : Anderson Julio (Lower leg), Bernard Kamungo (lower leg)\n****Questionable**** : none\nOn Loan: Tsiki Ntsabeleng (Mamelodi Sundowns FC), Enes Sali (Al-Riyadh), Malachi Molina (Nashville SC), Geovane Jesus (North Texas SC), Enzo Newman (North Texas SC)\nUnavailable (off-roster): Daniel Baran, Jaidyn Contreras\nInternational duty: none\n\n* * *\n\n## Minnesota Lineup Notes:\n\nFormation: 3-4-2-1\n\nStarting XI\n\n  1. **GK:** Callender\n  2. **CB:** Romero\n  3. **CB:** Duggan\n  4. **CB:** Diaz\n  5. **LWB:** Duncan\n  6. **CM:** Triantis\n  7. **CM:** Gene\n  8. **RWB:** Markanich\n  9. **AM:** Chancalay\n  10. **AM:** Pereyra\n  11. **ST:** Yeboah\n\n\n\n* * *\n\n## **How to watch**\n\n📅 Date: Wednesday, April 22, 2026\n⚽️ Kickoff: 7:30 PM\n🏟 Venue: Toyota Stadium\n📺 Streaming: MLS Season Pass\n💬 Gameday Social: #FCDvMNU\n☀️ Weather: 73, partly cloudy\n\nIf you found this useful, there's a lot more where it came from.\n\nBig D Soccer covers every FC Dallas match with scouting reports,\ntactical breakdowns, salary cap analysis, and more — all week long.\nFree subscribers get it in their inbox.
