Major League Soccer sides collide in the last 16 of the U.S. Open Cup on Wednesday as the New York Red Bulls host Dallas FC.
Tensions will be high in Harrison, New Jersey on Wednesday when the New York Red Bulls host Dallas FC in the last 16 of the 2025 U.S. Open Cup, with both teams in very similar forms coming into the fixture. Sandro Schwarz’s hosts currently sit 10th in Major League Soccer’s Eastern Conference, having failed to win either of their last two games and sit just outside the playoff places as things stand. Dallas, meanwhile, is 11th in the West and is similarly looking to the cup competition as a means of distraction and seeking its first win in this head-to-head since Feb. 2019.

Meetings between these two outfits have been few and far between in recent years, though the Red Bulls held on to book a 2-1 home win the last time they faced off in April 2024.
Dallas will travel to Sports Illustrated Stadium hoping to break from the pattern that’s developed between the two, however, a little more than three years on from drawing 0-0 at the venue in its most recent visit.
The Red Bulls advanced to the round of 16 thanks to a thoroughly convincing 4-1 win over the Colorado Springs Switchbacks in the previous stage of the competition.
Mohammed Sofo put his side en route to victory with a first-half brace before Dennis Gjengaar and Sean Nealis followed up with one goal apiece after the break.
Former Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain forward Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting will be the man Schwarz is hoping will guide the Red Bulls to a place in the next round of the U.S. Open Cup.
The Cameroonian is his side’s top scorer this season on four goals, having bagged half of that tally in a recent 7-0 thrashing of the Los Angeles Galaxy.
Luciano Acosta has an identical tally for Dallas across all competitions this term and will be the danger man for the visiting team, who beat Alta 3-1 in the last round.
Regional restrictions may apply.
