MLS 2020 Fixtures Format

The MLS 2020 schedule has been panned out in a way that each club in the MLS will play 34 MLS fixtures throughout the regular season, with 17 MLS fixtures at home and 17 MLS upcoming matches away. Teams will face conference opponents twice and play 10 MLS fixtures against non-conference opponents in the MLS upcoming matches. This means that every team will have three MLS fixtures against teams they will not face this year.

So not every schedule is made the same which means that the MLS 2020 schedule should be even more interesting. Stay tuned for the MLS upcoming matches in the near future with the MLS schedule.
