The New England Revolution don’t know who they will open the postseason against, but they do know they are favored to win their first MLS Cup title.

The Revolution earned the Supporters Shield by racking up 73 points with a 22-5-7 record during the regular season. They are the top seed in the playoffs and will play either fourth-seeded New York City FC or No. 5 Atlanta on Nov. 30.



New England has reached five previous MLS Cup finals – in 2002, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2014 – and have lost them all. But the Revolution have been installed as the +300 favorites by BetMGM to break that dubious historical mark.

Colorado also earned a Round 1 bye on the final day of the regular season, but the Rapids are the third betting favorite at +625 at BetMGM behind the Revolution and the Seattle Sounders (+525).

The Rapids will play either No. 4 Portland or No. 5 Minnesota on Nov. 30, while the Sounders are preparing to play host to seventh-seeded Real Salt Lake on Tuesday.

The playoffs begin Saturday with the New York Red Bulls visiting the Philadelphia Union followed by Kansas City playing host to Vancouver.

A trio of games on Sunday pits Montreal against Toronto, New York City against Atlanta and Portland against Minnesota.
