A new Major League Soccer season is upon us, and all eyes are on the early favorites to hoist the Philip F. Anschutz Trophy, the most prestigious award in MLS, as Lionel Messi and his Inter Miami CF squad kick off the season.

After a disappointing 2024 season in which Inter Miami CF lost to Atlanta United in the first round of the playoffs, the team underwent multiple changes to enhance the roster’s depth and made a coaching change. New head coach Javier Mascherano has taken over from Gerardo ‘Tato’ Martino, signing a contract through 2027, signifying a new era for the team in Miami.

Los Angeles FC is a force to be reckoned with in the upcoming MLS Cup. After a successful rebuilding phase, LAFC now boasts an outstanding roster, including Olivier Giroud, Carlos Vela, Aaron Long, and Timothy Tillman, among others. This strong lineup makes them a close second in odds to win the Philip F. Anschutz Trophy, sparking excitement for the season ahead.

Here are the MLS Power Rankings by odds as the 2025 season kicks off.
