Betting Odds: The Crew is slight favorites to win the MLS Cup

Editor’s Note: American betting odds are based on $100 bets. Favorites are expressed by a lower number, heavily favorited teams will often be expressed with (-). So, for example, if the betting odds for a club are -150, you would need to bet $150 to make $100. Whereas, if the odds are +150, a $100 bet would payout $150

Saturday evening in Columbus, Ohio, the Seattle Sounders will attempt to become the first club to win back-to-back MLS Cup championships since the 2012 LA Galaxy. That accomplishment, however, is only possible by overcoming the daunting task of defeating the Columbus Crew at home, something that only happened once in the Major League Soccer regular season.
