Does Bob Bradley represent what LAFC are trying to build? by Dan Cunningham

After a dominant 4-0 win in the first leg of the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals, FC Dallas will look to close out the series on Wednesday night in Panama.

It was a brilliant start to the CCL quarterfinals for Major League Soccer side FC Dallas. The club from Texas ran rampant against Arabe Unido at Toyota Stadium, winning 4-0 and taking a huge aggregate advantage into the second leg.

Dallas’ win made history, as the 4-0 margin was the largest by an MLS club in the CCL knockout rounds.

Coming into this match Dallas will have to decide what kind of lineup it wants to field. With a 4-0 lead it may seem prudent to rest a few players ahead of the MLS opening weekend. However, Arabe Unido shouldn’t be taken lightly at home, and have already taken down Liga MX side Monterrey in the competition.

Expect Kellyn Acosta and Cristian Colman to be in the lineup, Acosta netted two goals in the first leg, and Colman also scored. It may be the better safe than sorry approach when the staring XI is chosen.

In the first leg, Dallas was seemingly ahead in every stat category. They out shot their opponents 11 to two and had 55% of the possession. Chris Seitz only faced one shot on goal in his clean sheet performance in net, look for him to get the nod as the starter on Wednesday.

Arabe Unido will be without defender Fidel Caesar, who will not play due to yellow card accumulation. The Panamanian club were undefeated at home during the group stage. In five CCL quarterfinal appearances they have a record of 0-4-1.
