Club football will not stop for fans in North America, with MLS games taking place twice this week for their full pleasure.
The top-tier category in the United States will have two busy days this week: June 19 and June 22. On each of those days, all the teams in the competition will be playing against each other to confirm their options to make the playoffs or to try and change their ways so their season does not look like a trainwreck. Some of those trying to confirm their playoff options are Inter Miami, Cincinnati, Real Salt Lake, or Los Angeles FC. On the contrary, SJ Earthquakes and New England will be aiming to improve during the next half of the season, which is set to come in the upcoming weeks.
Here is all you need to know as a massive week of the 2024 Major League Soccer season gets underway this Wednesday.

Top Major League Soccer games to watch this week
Inter Miami vs Columbus Crew: The Herons return to action trying to adjust to life without Messi and Suárez, and this time they get to face the defending MLS Cup champions in what should be an electric clash to follow. Inter are unbeaten in their last three games against Columbus, and they did it all without Messi. Will they be able to claim one more win here?

Cincinnati vs Philadelphia Union: The hosts have been quite solid all season long, and their record has them chasing Inter for the top spot in the East despite having two games in hand. On the other hand, the Union enter this clash on a four-game streak without a win, which leaves them as potential victims against Cincinnati. The Orange and Blue have two wins and one draw in their last three games against Philadelphpia, and if you are a betting man, then you should take that bet and collect since there seems to be no way for the Union to win this clash.

Sporting KC vs Real Salt Lake: The best team in the West gets to travel to Kansas City, and there's reason to believe that the away side will take home all the points. The Claret and Cobalt are unbeaten in their last five games, and even if three of those ended in draws, Sporting KC has only been able to win one match. The odds of taking Real Salt Lake down in this game seem quite slim, especially if we take under consideration that the away side has claimed three wins in their last five visits to Children's Mercy Park.
