Colin Miller's Keys to the Match

Tune in on matchdays for a one hour pre-match show and one hour post-match show as Colin Miller and Corey Basso call the action live from BC Place on AM730. Saturday's pre-match show kicks off at 6:00 p.m. PT at whitecapsfc.com/am730.

Here are Colin’s keys for Saturday's huge battle with FC Dallas.

Keep Pepi and O’Brian quiet

FC Dallas have a number of talented players, but two have stood out recently.

Over their past three matches, Ricardo Pepi and Jáder Obrian have scored five of their six goals.

Keeping these danger men quiet will go a long way to securing three points.

Energy and positivity from the start

There are five home matches remaining, and the ‘Caps need to take advantage.

They’ve won three of their first four matches at BC Place.

They need to bring energy and positivity from the start to give the crowd something to support.

Set plays … again

Against Colorado, the ‘Caps lost a soft goal on a corner.

Players must be tighter in their marking.

On the other end, the quality of delivery needs to be better and more consistent.
