League format : Soccer / Football : MLS 2011

Major League Soccer is expanding its regular-season schedule from 30 to 34 games this season following the addition of the two expansion teams. The league's new structure also includes the new format for the 2011 MLS Cup Playoffs. The post-season tournament now involve 10 clubs, two more than the traditional eight. The top three teams in each of Major League Soccer's two conference receive guaranteed playoff spots. They will be joined by the next four teams with the highest point totals in a single table of the league standings. The four "wild-card" teams will play one-match knockout games hosted by higher seeds.

The weakest seed to qualify out of the wild-card rounds would have to play the Supporters' Shield winner, an annual award given to the MLS team with the best regular season record. The other wild-card winner will face the No. 1 seed in the opposite conference from the Supporters' Shield winner. The four conference semifinals will be decided by two-game aggregate series, with each club hosting one game. The conference finals will remain one-match knockout games hosted by the higher seed. The MLS Cup will again be a single championship match hosted at a predetermined venue.
