The MLS Cup playoffs are underway as mouthwatering matchups are on the table for the grand finale.
It could be a warm day in Florida, a storm in Texas, or a frigid day on the coast of the river in Pennsylvania, but the date for the 2025 MLS Cup final is set for Dec. 6, bringing every potential of weather and atmosphere to the final day of the season.
Sixteen clubs remain in contention to make a run to MLS Cup, and there’s the potential of 13 clubs to host the final match, which will be a one-game winner-take-all showdown. The only teams in the first-round best-of-three series unable to host the final due to their regular-season record are Austin FC, FC Dallas and Portland Timbers.
It got us thinking, which matchups could be the most fun?
