The 2008 MLS Playoffs are set to kick off on Thursday night and it is time to start taking a closer look at the match-ups.
You can read my in-depth take on the Eastern Conference playoffs on ESPN.com. As you can see, my East preview was written before the Taylor Twellman news surfaced. Colleague Jeff Carlisle tackled the Western Conference playoff preview.
Here is my question for you. Which teams do you see winning the four first-round series? I see Columbus, Chicago, Houston and Chivas USA. Now it’s your turn to vote on all four series after the jump:
Who will win the MLS first-round playoff series?
EASTERN CONFERENCE
Columbus Crew vs. Kansas City Wizards
Chicago Fire vs. New England Revolution
WESTERN CONFERENCE
Houston Dynamo vs. New York Red Bulls
Chivas USA vs. Real Salt Lake
