Vancouver Whitecaps, who freshly won their fifth Canadian Championship, are hoping to cap an impressive season with the MLS Cup, which has eluded them for so long. They finished second in the Western Conference and fifth overall in the regular season to qualify for the playoffs.

Blue-and-White failed to progress beyond round one of the playoffs last season, after falling to Los Angeles FC 2-1.

This term, they are 90 minutes away from reaching the final, thanks to an impressive run in the previous rounds. In round one, Vancouver defeated FC Dallas 2-0, before taking their revenge over Los Angeles FC 4-3 to reach the conference final.
