Playoffs probability and more

Philadelphia has increased from a 29.0% to a 36.1% chance of making the playoffs.

Next is the distribution of Philadelphia’s points against the MLS East’s sixth seed in all the simulations.

The Union remains at a 0.2% chance of winning the Supporters’ Shield.

 

The Union increased from a 0.8% to a 1.3% chance of winning the MLS Cup.

 

Philadelphia’s chances of having a U.S. Open Cup win increased from 3.4% to 4.8%.

The 2019 CONCACAF Champions League qualification from the U.S. was supposed to be the 2017 & 2018 winners of the U.S. Open Cup and the MLS Cup. This is why Kansas City has already qualified. However, since Toronto (not eligible for a U.S. qualification slot) won the MLS Cup, that slot (and any other future Canadian or Kansas City wins) will be given to the club with the most regular season points over both 2017 and 2018.

Philadelphia increased from a 4.2% chance to a 6.0% chance of qualifying for the 2019 edition of the CONCACAF Champions League.

The following are Philadelphia’s odds at different prizes over time.

The following are the probabilities of each final playoffs placement for Philadelphia.

The following shows the summary of the simulations in an easy table format.
