The Herons are still without their talisman Lionel Messi.

Inter Miami are back in action in the MLS as they lock horns with second-placed FC Cincinnati at home. The Herons are currently leading the charts in the Eastern Conference table gathering 53 points from 25 matches. 

Gerardo Martino’s side has displayed great attacking prowess this season after scoring the most goals in the league this term. They will be aiming for revenge in this match after the Orange and Blue secured a 6-1 thumping win over them in the reverse fixture. 

FC Cincinnati will be aiming to reduce the gap at the top after trailing by five points in the MLS Eastern Conference table. Both these teams suffered a setback in the Leagues Cup after being eliminated from the Round of 16. 

Nevertheless, the Orange and Blue can now focus on the league as they lock horns with the table toppers whom they defeated impressively at the reverse fixture. Pat Noonan’s side will be aiming to replicate the same performance in this match to emerge victorious.

Players to Watch

Luis Suarez (⁠Inter Miami CF)

Luis Suarez is having an excellent debut season with the club after scoring 16 goals for them in all competitions while also laying on another eight assists. With Lionel Messi sidelined due to an injury, the Uruguayan international has been given the role of delivering the goals for the team which he has been doing for the past decade.

He is arguably one of the best strikers in football history who has graced the fans with his goal-scoring prowess. His movements and poacher instincts will be crucial in getting the goals for the team in this match.

Luciano Acosta (FC Cincinnati)

Luciano Acosta has emerged as one of the best players in the league who has constantly lit up the league with his goals and assists. This season he ranks in the first position in overall charts after registering 26 G/A contributions from 24 matches in the league. Acosta can win matches on his own as he can score goals and create chances for his team through his excellent vision and passing ability.
