Looks like I missed last week’s power rankings due to preparing for a vacation to see the Royals play Portland. As such, here’s the rankings for Wk 14 and 13 (in parenthesis). Once again every team changed positions due to some unexpected results. Looks as if having the international players back actually helps doesn’t it?
I do rankings for both NWSL and MLS a little differently; typically in soccer leagues within the USA, the home team wins more than 50% of the time. Thus I rank any team deviates from the ‘normal’ higher - basically an away team winning will move higher than a home team winning.
