Atlanta United vs Inter Miami Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The Herons can go through to the next round with a victory.

After their narrow 2-1 win in Round One, Inter Miami will visit the Mercedes-Benz Stadium to face Atlanta United. This will be the second game of the ‘Best of Three’ series of MLS playoffs. In the previous match, Lionel Messi’s side were considered huge favourites due to their regular season form and them playing in front of their own fans.

However, Atalanta United surprised everyone by their intensity. They made progressing the ball difficult for Inter Miami. Tata Martino’s side were bailed out by a wonderful strike from the full-back, Jordi Alba.

Atlanta United showcased excellent team chemistry in some phases of the game, and some of the veterans also stepped up to keep the scoreline respectable against the Herons. Atlanta need to win the game to keep their hopes alive for progressing further in the tournament, and the visitors just need a win to put this series to bed.

KickOff:

Sunday, November 3, 2024 at 4:30 AM IST

Venue: Mercedes-Benz Stadium

Form:

Atlanta United (in all competitions): L-W-W-W-L

Inter Miami (in all competitions): W-W-W-W-D

Players to watch out for:

Brad Guzan (Atlanta United)

The American Goalkeeper was without a doubt, the best player for the five stripes. The scoreline would have been very different had he not made some amazing saves. His performance was so good that it left Lionel Messi frustrated for not getting his name on the scoresheet. He will once again be vital for Atlanta to keep the dangerous duo of Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez at bay.

Lionel Messi (Inter Miami)

As always, all eyes will be on Lionel Messi to take his team to the promised land. He was denied by Guzan on multiple occasions in round one and he will only have one thing on his mind, revenge. He will be very motivated to lead the team in pink to the next round and we are all aware of what a motivated Lionel Messi can do.
