The league appears to be going with a roller coaster approach with the MLS TV schedule in 2017. Opening weekend featured a Friday night kick-off and the Soccer Sunday double header. From there it scaled down to two matches and then one last week. Week five promises to hit back hard with a Seattle and Atlanta Friday night battle.
True, the Univision/Facebook Live deal did start last week, but that doesn’t reach the level of the national broadcasts until a few of the bugs are worked out and becomes easier to navigate.
Match day four brings a unique lineup due to the FIFA International Break.
