Defending champion Columbus Crew won't be opening the season, though. Instead, it'll be Lionel Messi and Inter Miami getting first dibs to start the season with momentum against a Western Conference playoff team.

Real Salt Lake, headlined by rising youngster Diego Luna, finished as the No. 5 seed last season but lost in the opening round of the playoffs.

Miami were notoriously known for being at the bottom of the East but pulled off a Leagues Cup win after Messi's arrival. The club also appeared in the U.S Open Cup Final but had to play without Messi due to injury.
