Projection time: MLS playoffs

The games are getting tight in MLS. Chivas USA was the only team to score two goals last week.

MLS also has hit a lull in the schedule thanks to World Cup qualifying. Just one game Wednesday, three on Saturday and one the next Wednesday. Several teams will be watching at 4 p.m. ET Saturday hoping to see Toronto lose at home to San Jose, which would all but clinch playoff spots for the three teams on 41 points.
