Top and bottom teams collide this weekend in Major League Soccer play. Both ends of the table have early-season six-pointers on tap, with the top two teams in the league clashing, as well as the third- and fourth-placed teams.

On the other end of the standings, teams that really shouldn't be there (Los Angeles and Portland, to name two) have an opportunity to climb off the foot of the rankings at the expense of the other.

The lack of national television coverage this weekend will not help the league's image, with only one game beamed across the nation. But this is shaping up to be the most important and exciting weekend of the young season, so find a local affiliate televising a local club, or subscribe to MLS Live to get the full experience.

With games such as these kicking off, fans won't want to miss it.
