Who's hot, who's not? GOAL ranks all 29 teams across Major League Soccer
The 2024 MLS field is more open than ever. There's a clear hierarchy atop both the Eastern and Western Conferences, but outside the top teams, it's open season for playoff qualification.
On Matchday 33 and 34, Lionel Messi's Inter Miami dropped points in stunning fashion with two-straight draws, opening up the race for the 2024 MLS Supporters' Shield. It wasn't just who faulted, though, as FC Cincinnati were held to a shocking draw against Nashville SC and LAFC are winless in five matches.
Meanwhile, other teams like the LA Galaxy and Columbus Crew are soaring up the table with two more victories under their belt, taking advantage of the teams around them dropping points.
Elsewhere, Real Salt Lake and the Colorado Rapids clinched their berth in the postseason, while a few late-season playoff pushes seem to be emerging with Minnesota United, CF Montreal, FC Dallas and the Philadelphia Union making their cases.
With the MLS campaign nearing a close, which club leads the pack, and who is falling short of expectations? GOAL presents the latest MLS Power Rankings.

29San Jose Earthquakes ⬇️
A draw vs Seattle and a loss to St. Louis has them on track for the Wooden Spoon. After their loss to CITY, forward Jeremy Ebobisse sounded off on the club, their performances of late and how much of a trainwreck 2024 has been.
“Everything is a disaster, frankly.”
“We can’t talk about next year because I don’t know if I’m going to be here next year. I don’t know if some of the guys in the locker room will be here”
Advertisement28Chicago Fire ⬇️
Chicago are now in a race to not finish at the bottom of the league with the Earthquakes. The season is a wash, and now, they just need to finish the campaign without ending in last.
27New England Revolution ⬇️
Drew Montreal midweek, and pummeled into the ground by Charlotte, 4-0, Saturday evening. Caleb Porter's debut season in New England continues to get worse and worse.
26St. Louis City SC ⬆️
They beat San Jose Saturday evening, but of late, that's no different than any MLS side. They're likely to fall short of postseason contention, with the sophomore slump overtaking them.
