Where every team can finish on Decision Day | MLSSoccer.com
Decision Day means all eyes are on the standings, especially when it comes to Audi 2023 MLS Cup Playoffs seeding.
That’s because only the top nine teams per conference join the postseason party and the top four get home-field advantage (through at least Round One).
With two simultaneous kickoff windows – Eastern Conference games are at 6 pm ET and Western Conference games are at 9 pm ET, all via MLS Season Pass on Apple TV – here’s where every team can finish in the regular season.
