The 2025 MLS playoffs are underway, with GOAL analyzing team tiers to assess potential champions and those merely participating for the experience. The Eastern Conference saw Philadelphia deservedly win the Supporters' Shield, while FC Cincinnati pushed them close, and Inter Miami recovered from a poor stretch to finish third.
In the Western Conference, there was more tension, particularly as LAFC improved their performance through smart midseason transfers. This sets the stage for compelling playoff matchups, including Miami-Nashville, which promises excitement if Nashville plays at their best, and Minnesota-Seattle, an intriguing contest, along with the highly anticipated Hell is Real derby in the first round.
Despite the buildup, predicting outcomes is challenging due to the league's inherent uncertainty; historically, Supporters' Shield winners like Philadelphia have been less likely to win the MLS Cup. In response, GOAL is ranking the playoff tiers to provide clarity amid the rampant unpredictability.
