Top games to watch on matchday 16 in Major League Soccer
Toronto vs Cincinnati: After a slightly wobbly start, Cincinnati have started to find their groove and come into their away match against Toronto having won their last five games. However, Toronto have shown great signs of improvement this season and will look to build upon a recent 5-1 mauling of fellow Canadian side Montreal as well as a 8-1 result against Saint-Laurent in the Canadian Championship to try to make it three wins on the spin in front of their home fans.

Atlanta United vs Los Angeles: It has been a really miserable time as of late for Atlanta United and their legions of fans. Although the team recently booked their spot in the quarter-finals of the 2024 US Open Cup, their form in Major League Soccer leaves much to be desired. It goes without saying that they will be desperate for some kind of good result when they welcome Los Angeles to town on Saturday, but given that their upcoming visitors have won three of their last four MLS matches, that may be much easier said than done.

Vancouver Whitecaps vs Inter Miami: Although the Herons come into this game on a nine game unbeaten streak, they will have to make do without several key players. Former Barcelona aces Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, and Sergio Busquets are not expected to make the trip to Vancouver, which will certainly give perhaps a glimmer of hope for a struggling opponent who have failed to win their last five games. That being said, Inter Miami, who could be overtaken at the top of the Eastern Conference if Cincinnati win their game, still do have additional options in their squad that could cause problems for their upcoming hosts.
