Matchday 1 arrives on Saturday, Feb. 25, so it’s time to assemble your squad! 

Setting up your team is easy. Head to fantasy.mlssoccer.com and hit the Sign Up Now button to get started.

Start by selecting a squad of 15 players with an initial budget of 100 million fantasy dollars. The initial squad selection must consist of:

  • 2 goalkeepers
  • 5 defenders
  • 5 midfielders
  • 3 forwards

From there, fantasy managers will select their starting XI each week to earn points based on in-game performance. Don’t forget to pick your captain! Designate the player that you believe will score the highest as your captain and their score will be doubled for that game week.
