When to Trust (or Fade) the Late Summer Surge

Bettors are in constant pursuit of the next edge, and when it comes to betting on the MLS Cup winner, futures bettors have long been trying to figure out whether late summer hot streaks can lead to postseason success. While the odds of a team trending down the stretch may change, the style of play in the playoffs also changes. 

Confidence is certainly needed to make deep postseason runs, but it’s only the tip of the iceberg for what is necessary for a title run. Factors such as playoff experience, tactical flexibility, and comfort in a knockout game should also hold a lot of weight in a bettor's handicapping process.

Summer surges can undoubtedly be helpful for a team regarding securing a higher seed or home-field advantage. Still, it’s important to remember that it is not anything, and sometimes bettors can even find value by fading the surging yet inexperienced postseason team. A good example is the 2016 Seattle Sounders, who struggled mightily down the stretch but were able to rely on their veterans to carry them through the postseason and into a championship.
