Power Rankings

June 12th, 2023

1. FC Cincinnati

After a draw with Vancouver, Cincinnati still sit up top.  They didn't dominate the game like they have been but Vancouver is a good team and Cincinnati looked the part all game with Vasquez missing a few quality chances.

Last Week: 1

2. Nashville SC

Once again a top team didn't set the world alight against a Canadian team in Toronto but Nashville played a solid game got a point on the road.  They move up a spot because of an egg being laid in Houston.

Last Week: 3

3. LAFC

Well that was not pretty.  LAFC lost 4-0 in Houston and didn't look like oen of the top teams in the league.  We'll give them a pass here as they've had a tough schedule but things aren't going to get an easier as they catch up with games.  This is the stretch where the top teams get tested.  We'll see how they respond.  

Last Week: 2

4. Philadelphia Union

Not a great week for the top teams as we see another top five loss.  The Union dropped all three points in San Jose.  What can I say, it's hard to get points on the road.  

Last Week: 4

5. St. Louis City SC

City drew against the Galaxy, which could be considered a loss at this point.  Gioacchini scored a beauty but they couldn't get all three points.  St. Louis still hanging around the top.

Last week: 5

6. New England Revolution

New England's game against Inter Miami most likely had a few extra eyes on it as people around the world wanted to watch Messi's future team.  The Rev's reminded all those new fans that Miami is at the bottom of the table and they are pushing for the top.

Last Week: 6

7. Columbus Crew

The Crew went on the road and got three points.  Scout, plan, execute, win.  Seems like a good formula.  Columbus are rolling and Zelarayan is leading the way.

Last Week: 7

8. Atlanta United 

Atlanta have been a tad inconsistent this season but this week was one of the good ones.  DC came into town and didn't push too hard.  The Five Stripes looked in control most of the game and took care of business.   

Last Week: 9

9. Seattle Sounders

Seattle's also been on a bit of a rollercoaster.  Their offense looked good, scoring three goals.  Their defense looked bad, giving up three goals.  Seattle still sits in a good spot and they have time to level things out a bit.

Last Week: 8

10. Vancouver Whitecaps

A few other teams may deserve to be in the top ten but Vancouver just won the Canadian Championship and drew against the best team in the league.  We'll give honorable mentions to Houston and San Jose for beating the big dogs but the Caps are still a team to look for.
