1. Historical confrontation record

The two sides have only 2 historical confrontations, with Cincinnati and Dallas winning 1 game each, showing a evenly matched confrontation pattern.

Note: The total number of goals scored in the last 5 matches of the two teams is ≤2 goals, and the game style is more cautious.

2. Tactical style analysis

Cincinnati

System and core: Head coach Pat Noonan focuses on 4-3-3 high-pressure system, emphasizing midfield ball control and wing breakthroughs. Midfielder Luciano Acosta (6 goals and 5 assists) is an offensive engine, good at tearing the defense through straight passes; winger Yuki Kubo and Denkai also create cross opportunities with speed.

Offensive features: Average 13.2 shots this season, with a prominent set-piece threat (28% of the corner kick score), but only scored 3 goals in the last 3 games, and the offensive efficiency has declined.

Defensive risks: Core guard Nick Haglund (rib fracture) was absent for several weeks, substitute center back Miazga lacked experience, and the success rate of high-altitude top-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square

Dallas

System and Core: Adopt a 4-2-3-1 defensive counterattack formation, relying on interception and wing attacks from the midfield double midfielder. Winter Petal Mousa (3 goals and 4 assists) is the core of the counterattack and is good at using personal abilities to hit the opponent's defense.

Offensive features: Average 11.5 shots per game this season, ranking fourth in the Western Conference in counterattack efficiency, but lacks stability in away offense (1.15 goals per game).

Defensive risks: Midfielder Sebastian Legert (hamstring injury) and Juleo (knee injury) are absent, resulting in a decline in the interception ability of the midfield and conceded 8 goals in the last 5 games.

III. Recent starting lineup (as of May 25, 2025)

Cincinnati (5-3-2)

Goalkeeper: Roman Cerentano (18)

Forwards: Sergi Santos (17), Ahueke Denkei (9 No.)

Note: This lineup is the starter who lost to Atlanta United 2-4 on May 26. Haglund's injury and lacks the defense line to rotate has increased.

Dallas (4-2-3-1)

Goalkeeper: Malten Pace (No. 1)

4. Injury status (official announcement)

Cincinnati

Injuries: defender Nick Haglund (rib fracture, missed for several weeks), midfielder Jackson Hopkins (ankle injury).

Questions: Whether winger Yuya Kubo (leg fatigue) can play is doubtful.

Impact Assessment: Insufficient experience in the back line, the wing defense may become a loophole.

Dallas

Injuries: Midfielder Sebastian Ledgert (hamstring injury), Juleo (knee injury), defender Geovan Rocha (torn cruciate ligament).

Suspension: Midfielder Acosta (non-Dallas player, original text may be erroneous).

Impact Assessment: The interception ability of the midfield is weakened, and the offensive end depends on Mousa to fight alone.
