An opportunity to get more eyeballs, and avoid a potential conflict, has led to MLS shifting its schedule for the playoffs.
The first change is to a game scheduled for Wednesday. MLS announced that the Sporting Kansas City matchup against Minnesota United will now take place on Thursday, pushing the match back one day. The upshot for MLS, however, is that now the game will be broadcast over the air on FOX, as opposed to FS1. Fox had originally been scheduled to carry Thursday Night Football that day, but the Ravens-Cowboys match was moved earlier this week.
