Let\u2019s dive into what Eric Quill\u2019s starting group looks like, who is on the bench, and who we believe will see minutes off the bench in this one. <\/p>\n<p>What Changed From Last Match<\/p>\n<p>This is the third game in seven days, so a rotation was expected. <\/p>\n<p>The big one off the bat is no Petar Musa in the starting lineup. Had Logan Farrington been healthy enough, we would have seen him in the lone striker spot; instead we get Santiago Moreno.<\/p>\n<p>The other changes from Wednesday night\u2019s group sees Daniel Job, Joaquin Valiente, Kaick, Sebastien Ibeagha and Lalas Abubakar return to the lineup. <\/p>\n<p>And in goal, Jonathan Sirois gets his first start in a few weeks, as he gives Daniel a bit of a breather before the playoffs. <\/p>\n<p>FC Dallas Lineup Notes:<\/p>\n<p>\n    Starting XI<br \/>\n    Formation: 3-4-3\n  <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;font-size:11px;color:#888;margin:8px 0 0;\">Starting lineup<\/p>\n<p>                        <a href=\"#\/portal\/signup\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.ghost.io\/c\/9b\/a4\/9ba413bd-9ade-4977-b9cf-1a1e2ef6de5c\/content\/images\/2026\/05\/Big_D_Soccer_minimal-8.svg\" alt=\"CTA Image\" data-image-dimensions=\"687x687\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Big D Soccer has covered FC Dallas since 2009.

I\u2019d expect Sarver, Kamungo, Cappis and Delgado to join him. <\/p>\n<p>Key Question Heading Into Kickoff<\/p>\n<p>Can FC Dallas respond after a lackluster Wednesday night? <\/p>\n<p>Wednesday\u2019s loss to Columbus should serve as an eye-opener for FC Dallas. Too many missed opportunities, some poor officiating, and all that jazz. Sporting is now the worst defense in league history (in terms of goals given up in a single season). Dallas already knows well how they can break down this defense. With Musa in the hunt for the Golden Boot, this is the perfect game for him to get in proper playoff form. <\/p>\n<p>Availability Report<\/p>\n<p>Suspended: Nolan Norris, Shaq Moore<br \/>International duty: none<br \/>Season-ending injury list: Kaka Scabin (knee)<br \/>Out: none<br \/>Questionable: Logan Farrington (lower leg)<\/p>\n<p>On Loan: Malachi Molina (Nashville SC), Enzo Newman (North Texas SC), Jaidyn Contreras (Tigres)<br \/>Unavailable (off-roster): Daniel Baran, Benji Flowers<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"sponsored nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/mlsstore.i8h2.net\/c\/6017956\/3229903\/9678?ref=bigdsoccer.com\" target=\"_top\" id=\"3229903\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/1793473091_213_9678-3229903.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"300\"\/><\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"0\" width=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/1793473092_403_9678.gif\" style=\"position:absolute;visibility:hidden;\" border=\"0\"\/><\/p>\n<p>How to watch<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcc5 Date: Saturday, October 31, 2026<br \/>\u26bd\ufe0f Kickoff: 2:00 PM<br \/>\ud83c\udfdf Venue: Sporting Park<br \/>\ud83d\udcfa Streaming: MLS Season Pass<br \/>\ud83d\udcac Gameday Social: #FCDvSKC<br \/>\u2600\ufe0f Weather: 64, cloudy<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"FC Dallas wraps up their road schedule for the 2026 season today when they take on Sporting Kansas&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":482592,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[102,104,103],"class_list":["post-482591","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-dallas","tag-dallas","tag-dallas-headlines","tag-dallas-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/482591","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=482591"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/482591\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/482592"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=482591"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=482591"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=482591"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
