HOUSTON - As FC Dallas and the Houston Dynamo meet for the first Texas Derby match of 2019, let's dive into Luchi Gonzalez's lineup in Week 10.
ARANGUIZ ON THE WING
With Paxton Pomykal picking up a hamstring injury last week against San Jose, Dallas will use the same lineup but with one change - having Pablo Aranguiz play on the left wing in his fourth start of the season. The midfield trio of Bryan Acosta, Carlos Gruezo and Edwin Cerrillo will make their second straight start, with Acosta taking the lead in the attacking phase.
LEAD HORSE
Michael Barrios leads all active players with four goals and four assists in nine derby appearances, including two goals in three meetings last year. The midfielder is set to make his 96th consecutive appearance for FCD in MLS play, but is sitting on yellow card accumulation warning and will be for the next five matches in search of the century mark If Barrios sees yellow, his streak would come to a halt.
MONTGOMERY IN THE 18
After starting three games with North Texas SC, No. 4 overall pick Callum Montgomery makes his first 18-man roster for FC Dallas with Bressan out injured for a second straight week. The defender helped FC Dallas' USL team post back-to-back shutouts and could be in line for his MLS debut off the bench.
