St. Louis City SC takes its first points streak of the season — a win and a tie in its past two games — on the road again to play FC Dallas on Saturday in Frisco, Texas.

After getting just one point from its first four games, with three straight losses after a tie in its first game, City SC has four points in its past two, including its first road point of the season. Here are some things to know about City SC’s meeting with Dallas, a team it hasn’t beaten since the club’s first season.

Eduard Lowen will return to the playing field for the first time since training camp on Friday, suiting up for St. Louis City2 in an MLS Next Pro game vs. Colorado Rapids 2 at Energizer Park at 7 p.m.

Lowen resumed practicing with the first team last week after the death of his wife, Ilona, on March 10. Playing on Friday would rule him out from playing for City SC on Saturday at Dallas, but City SC has two games next week, an Open Cup match vs. Tulsa on Wednesday and a game at Seattle on Saturday, that could mark his return to the first team.

Lukas MacNaughton has played more than 4,200 minutes in Major League Soccer, the equivalent of about 47 games, over his five seasons in the league, and on Saturday, he got his first assist.

It was his well-placed — and well-practiced — pass into the box that a diving Brendan McSorley headed into the net that got St. Louis City its first goal on the road this season and a 1-1 tie with New York City FC. It also gave City SC its first point streak of the season, with a win and a tie in its past two games.
