St. Louis City is the top team in the Western Conference — an incredible accomplishment for an expansion team in its first Major League Soccer season.

City currently sits at 17 wins with one game remaining. With 56 points, they’re a point away from LAFC’s single-season record of 57 points in an inaugural year, with one last regular-season game remaining.
