VANCOUVER — Major League Soccer’s condensed 2027 season will feature just one all-Canadian matchup.
The league unveiled the full schedule for its so-called “sprint season” on Thursday, including the lone Canadian clash with Toronto FC hosting CF Montreal on Feb. 27.
MLS is playing an abbreviated season from February through May before switching in July to the summer-to-spring calendar used by many of the world’s top leagues.
Each of the 30 MLS teams will play a 14-game schedule against its conference opponents, with the top eight in each conference advancing to a single-elimination playoff bracket.
