We're in the home stretch of the 2017 season and teams are battling to get above the playoff line.

We know who's above and below it according to the current standings, but given the fact that teams have played a differing amount of games and have different strengths of schedule, it would be better to look at some different numbers to try and determine who has the best chance of reaching the MLS Cup Playoffs.
