RECENT FORM VS. FC DALLAS


The Revs and FC Dallas met just once last year, at Gillette Stadium in April, when Jacori Hayes scored late to lift the visitors to a 1-0 win. It was FCD's seventh straight victory in the series dating back to 2012, and the third 1-0 result in that span.


The Revs are also winless in their last eight visits to Toyota Stadium (0-7-1), including the 2016 U.S. Open Cup final, but New England still have a winning record all-time (11-10-2) on the road in Dallas.


This will be just the second time the Revs have ever opened a season in Dallas, and the first since 1997, when the Revs secured a 1-0 win at the Cotton Bowl. Saturday's match once again kicks off a new campaign, and the Revs will be looking to reverse the course of their recent history with Dallas and start 2019 on a positive note.


Overall Record vs. FC Dallas: 23-18-3
Away Record vs. FC Dallas: 11-10-2


Last meeting: FC Dallas 1, Revs 0 (April 14, 2018 at Gillette Stadium)
Last meeting in Dallas: FC Dallas 2, Revs 1 (March 18, 2017 at Toyota Stadium)

SHOW YOUR COLORS


Break out your new kit, “The Colonial!"


The Revs will be sporting their sleek new secondary kits, which take inspiration from uniforms the colonial generals wore in the Revolutionary War.


These jerseys sport a white front with light blue sides and sleeves, and are tied together with navy blue trim. The light blue sides continue to cover the back of the jersey, topped near the neckline with the classic image of the Flag of New England.


You can own "The Colonial" by visiting the Gillette Stadium Pro Shop, or clicking HERE.
