Dallas team news and form: Luccin has to get results swiftly

Coach Peter Luccin is quite aware he was appointed as head coach with the assumption results will start pouring in sooner rather than later. So far, the Bulls’ display has been somewhat inconsistent, but a nice win over fierce rivals Austin might change that.

Predicted lineup: Paes (GK), Kamungo, Farfa, Tafari, Ibeagha, Arriola, Ntsabeleng, Lletget, Illarramendi, Farrington & Musa

Player to watch: Asier Illarramendi

Former LA Liga superstar Iillarramendi will be the key Dallas player on the 18th of July for sure. So far, he hasn’t done much. He only scored twice and gave a teammate one assist. This is not the sort of display the fans are after, but if there’s one thing Illarramendi has, it’s class. We are sure he will help make our Dallas vs Austin predictions a massive success.

Second player to watch: Petar Musa

Young Musa is the key striker for Dallas this season. He slid it past the goalkeepers on 11 occasions, and could easily score more if the midfielders keep supplying him with cut-throat passes.
