Making it to the playoffs in the MLS is a little easier than in most professional sports, with 6 teams from each conference making it in. That said soccer odds fans, it is only the top 2 in each conference that have what would be considered the easier route to the final. The remaining 4 playoff teams in the East and the West have to go into a 1-game knockout game that can see their season end in 90 minutes. The first of those match-ups is set for Wednesday night, when the New England Revolution go on the road to face DC United.

— D.C. United (@dcunited) October 26, 2015
This is a game that most online betting fans would expect DC United to win, especially since they have the home field edge, but it is perhaps not as clear cut as it would appear. DC were certainly dominant at home, racking up 11 wins there this season, and they also have one of the best defenses in the MLS. The problem with DC is that they are coming into this one on a pretty poor run of form. They were very much in contention for the Supporters Shield heading into the final few weeks, but they faltered badly down the stretch, culminating in a 5-0 thumping at the hands of the Columbus Crew in the final week of the season.
They are going to have to try and get that defeat out of their heads, which is not going to be easy to do considering that it came just 4 days prior to this game. DC United won the last time they faced New England on home field, but that was back when they were flying high.

Consider This Before Placing Your Bet
The last 5 meetings between these two teams in DC has seen United win 4 times. You have to go back to 2013 to find the last time the Revolution won there, which makes their task seem all the more impossible. I have to go with DC United here, but it will be a close one.
