Dallas away is next, and the form is finally decent
Your team goes to FC Dallas on Sunday, September 20 (02:30 CEST), and you arrive with the best run of the season. Austin FC have two wins and three draws in the last five (D W D D W).
Back to back road wins did it. You beat Portland Timbers 1–2 away on August 30, then Vancouver Whitecaps 1–2 away on September 14. Both on the road, same scoreline. That is the first time this season the away form has carried you.
Position: 13th in the Western Conference, 29 points from 25 games, goal difference -12. The wins are moving you, slowly.

The home draws are the problem
Three straight home draws in the last six weeks. Philadelphia Union 1–1 on August 23, San Jose Earthquakes 1–1 on September 6, Colorado Rapids 1–1 on September 10.
Same score, three times. You keep taking a point at Q2 and leaving two behind. That is the gap between 13th and a playoff place right now.
No home game until San Diego FC at Q2 on September 27.
Fan reactions
The talk on r/AustinFC right now is not the Dallas trip. A supporter who follows both Austin FC and Brentford is asking whether there are other Brentford fans in the city who meet up to watch games, and whether anyone knows a spot. If you are one of them, that thread is where to answer.
