Columbus Crew vs Atlanta United: The first full day of MLS games kicks off with what could be an intriguing showdown starring Columbus Crew and Atlanta United. Both teams were not only among the highest scoring sides in the division (67 goals for the Crew and 66 for United) but also played some exciting attacking football that kept fans and neutrals alike entertained.

Los Angeles vs Seattle Sounders: These two teams finished third and second in the Western Conference respectively last season and generally have been among the top-performing sides in the division over the past few campaigns. St. Louis pipped both to top spot in the Western Conference after a fantastic season, but this game could be one to keep eyes on as it stars two of the top teams not just in the Western Conference, but the league at large.

Orlando City vs Montreal: Orlando had a solid showing last season, but were unable to catch up to eventual Eastern Conference leaders Cincinnati, who had their best season in franchise history. The Lions will obviously be looking to hit the ground running as they prepare to host a Montreal side who were far from consistent last campaign and ended up finishing in the bottom half of the table.

Los Angeles Galaxy vs Inter Miami: Fresh off a confidence boosting 2-0 win against Real Salt Lake, Inter Miami will be quickly returning to the pitch as they travel to face Los Angeles Galaxy on Sunday. The addition of Luis Suarez to an already star-studded lineup that includes Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets, and of course, Lionel Messi, has already proven to be a huge boost for Gerardo Martino's side as both Suarez and Messi were directly involved in the team's two goals in their season opener on Wednesday. Meanwhile, Los Angeles Galaxy have added some exciting new faces to their squad that could prove to be the huge boost Greg Vanney's side need to challenge for some silverware this season.
