What the MLS schedule could look like under the new rules

Early Monday morning, MLS announced that expansion teams Inter Miami FC and Nashville SC will be playing in the Eastern and Western Conferences respectively. Even more interesting is that they also announced how the schedule for each team will be built for the 2020 year.

In 2020, teams will still play 34 games. To get to that number, they will be playing home and away against the other 12 teams in their conference (24 games) and they will only play 10 of the 13 teams in the other conference. Thus, 2020 will mark the first time that MLS teams will not play every other team throughout the season.
