Rules for classification: 1) points; 2) total wins; 3) total goal differential; 4) total goals scored; 5) disciplinary points; 6) away goals scored; 7) away goal differential; 8) home goals scored; 9) home goal differential; 10) coin toss or drawing of lots.
Notes:
  1. ↑ Since Montreal Impact is a Canadian team, the 2017–18 CONCACAF Champions League berth given to the Eastern Conference team with the best record would instead pass to the next best American team regardless of conference (in this case, Real Salt Lake).
