MLS NEXT Pro Power Rankings: Austin FC II Remains Unbeaten

The MLS NEXT Pro playoffs are just around the corner, and teams are scrambling to secure their spots in the coveted competition.

Austin FC II continues to dominate the Western Conference, earning a point on the road against North Texas SC before claiming a victory at home. With four games left in their season, ATX II looks all but assured of locking down the number one seed in the West with a result at Timbers2 this week.

Crown Legacy FC dropped points against Connecticut United FC in a 2-0 loss, but bounced back with a commanding 3-1 win over Earthquakes II. The top four teams in this week’s rankings remain unchanged from last week, while Connecticut United FC makes the biggest move thanks to their pair of wins during Matchweek 25.

Austin FC II remains unbeaten and sits six points clear of second place in the Western Conference. With a strong finish to the season, ATX II is poised to make a deep run in the playoffs.

The competition is heating up, and teams will need to bring their A-game if they hope to secure a spot in the playoffs. With only four games left in the season, every match counts.
