The MLS league winner futures board is getting a major shakeup as the second half of the season heats up. While Inter Miami still commands public interest with Lionel Messi at the helm, it’s Columbus Crew and surprise package San Diego FC who are driving sharp money and becoming critical liabilities.
Whether it’s line movement, ticket splits, or unexpected contenders rising, BetMGM’s latest odds reveal where the market is heading—and where value still exists.

<h2 data-start="567" data-end="621">Line Movement: San Diego &amp; Vancouver Make the Jump</h2>
The biggest mover on the MLS title board is San Diego FC, whose odds opened at +8000 and have crashed down to +700. The Western Conference leaders are delivering results and metrics, boasting 48 goals, second-most in MLS, with the seventh-best expected goals (xG) at 45.79. Their surge has made them a liability at the book—and a contender on the field.
Vancouver Whitecaps have quietly moved from +3300 to +800. With an elite defense and top-five xG (50.38), the Whitecaps are sitting second in the West and rising in both the standings and the futures market.
On the flip side, Atlanta United has plummeted from +4000 to +20000 as they sit near the bottom of the East with just 21 points. Despite the collapse, they still account for a surprising 10.9% of the handle, making them one of BetMGM’s most significant liabilities.
(Open to Now)
<ul>
<li>Inter Miami +350 to +400</li>
<li>San Diego FC +8000 to +700</li>
<li>Vancouver Whitecaps +3300 to +800</li>
<li>Los Angeles FC +550 to +1000</li>
<li>Atlanta United +4000 to +20000</li>
</ul>
<h2 data-start="1506" data-end="1572">Ticket &amp; Handle %: Miami, Cincy, and Columbus in the Spotlight</h2>
Inter Miami leads the pack in ticket percentage at 12.6%, followed closely by FC Cincinnati (10.9%) and San Diego FC (7.8%). Miami remains one of the most dangerous clubs offensively, with 49 goals, which leads the league, and the second-best accurate shooting percentage at 42.5%. They also have the lowest xG (38.55) of the top contenders, ranking 18th in the MLS, which could hint at regression.
Cincinnati (+700) has been the model of consistency, ranking second in the East with 49 points, and boasts one of the strongest defensive records, having conceded just 31 goals. Despite relatively muted attacking numbers (xG of 39.83, 15th in MLS), they’ve outperformed metrics and stayed near the top.
The sharpest money, however, is on Columbus Crew (+1400), who command a slate-high 11.9% of handle. Columbus is top five in xG (47.31) and remains dangerous across the board with a balanced attack and solid PPG (1.76). Bettors are clearly trusting their underlying metrics to break through.
Highest Ticket%
<ul>
<li>Inter Miami 12.6%</li>
<li>FC Cincinnati 10.9%</li>
<li>San Diego FC 7.8%</li>
</ul>
Highest Handle%
<ul>
<li>Columbus Crew 11.9%</li>
<li>Atlanta United 10.9%</li>
<li>Inter Miami 10.3%</li>
</ul>
<h2 data-start="2562" data-end="2626">Biggest Liabilities: Galaxy, San Diego, Atlanta, Causing Risk</h2>
It’s not just the high-performers that are making sportsbooks sweat. Los Angeles Galaxy, currently last in the West with just 16 points, somehow find themselves as BetMGM’s biggest liability due to early-season action, when they were at +700. Now offering +100000 odds, Galaxy holds 3.1% of tickets, a shocking amount for a team that’s won just three matches.
San Diego’s rocket climb makes them the second-biggest risk, especially given their ticket share and massive line movement. Atlanta remains a wildcard: terrible form, heavy handle, and extremely long odds combine for a nightmare exposure.
Biggest Liabilities
<ul>
<li>Los Angeles Galaxy</li>
<li>San Diego FC</li>
<li>Atlanta United</li>
</ul>
<h2 data-start="3225" data-end="3242">MLS Championship Race Final Whistle</h2>
The top of the MLS futures market is evolving rapidly. Inter Miami continues to draw casual interest, but the real sharp action is showing up on Columbus, Vancouver, and especially San Diego FC. Meanwhile, long-shot liabilities like Atlanta and LA Galaxy could bust the books if they somehow make late runs. With form shifting, markets tightening, and metrics pointing in new directions, now’s the time to recalibrate your MLS futures board.
