Atlanta United are the favorites to win this season and are said to be one of the best teams in Major League Soccer. They boast of an array of some incredibly talented players. They missed out on the Supporters' Shield by just 2 points. The team, however, claims that their loss only motivates them to win the entire competition.
New York Red Bulls

The New York Red Bulls, who were the winners of the Supporters' Shield and finished on top of the table yet again, are also on the top of bookmakers' lists to win the MLS. Formerly known as the MetroStars, they have been one of the most successful clubs of the league. Despite being favorites, the Red Bulls still haven't won a league, but given the form they're in now, this year might be their time to shine.
Sporting Kansas City

Best betting odds according to BetFame Live Odds - 4.50
Sporting Kansas City will be hoping to win their third MLS title this year. They finished on the top of the Western Conference Table, and 2nd in the final table. The last few seasons haven't been great for Kansas City, as they never seemed to make it past the knockout stage.
Portland Timbers
Best betting odds according to SportsPrediction Live Odds - 5.50
Best betting odds according to BetFame Live Odds - 5.00
The Portland Timbers emerged as the winners of the Western Conference semifinals in a nerve-wracking penalty kick out against the Seattle Sounders this November. New head coach Giovanni Savarese may be just what they need to make it through this season.
