Percentiles from 0 to 100: 90 means better than 90% of clubs in the league, or in the world. Higher means more of that quality. The profile describes the club. It is not part of the score. Missing bars mean there is not enough data yet. How the profile works.

This season they are taking 1.48 points a game from 31 matches, while their performances have been worth 1.52. That is 1.2 points fewer than the football deserved, which our model calls fair. Their opponents this season have averaged a rating of 1303, about the league average.

For context, the next club above them in the MLS (United States) is Nashville SC, rated 1493, and the next one below is Seattle Sounders, rated 1462. The gap to the strongest side in the division, Inter Miami, is 23 rating points.

Compared with the rest of their league, their style stands out for very high squad age, very high dribbling and very low quality of chances.

On rating, they play like a tier-2 side, 2 tiers above the level of their own league.

The MLS (United States) itself is 13th in our world league ranking, where its average club is 1.06 goals per 90 worse than the top-five average.

How sure are we? Confidence in this rating is high: the range of 70th to 192nd is where the club's true world rank sits four times in five. Results to 25 Oct 2026.
