Inter Miami vs Tigres UANL Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Leagues Cup 2025 quarter-final

Los Tigres came out on top as the winning team when they last faced the Herons.

Inter Miami are all set to host Tigres UANL in the 2025 Leagues Cup quarterfinal. The high-stakes contest between the two clubs will take place at Chase Stadium.

The Javier Mascherano-led side are coming in after taking down LA Galaxy in their previous fixture. It was a good performance by the Herons. They were brilliant in the attacking front and their defence was also decent enough. Inter Miami took down Pumas UNAM to qualify for the Leagues Cup quarterfinals.

Tigres UANL fell prey to Club America in their previous fixture, this loss can also affect their current form in the Leagues Cup. They have performed decently against MLS teams in their last few games, but for the upcoming game, they will face Lionel Messi and company, which will be a much tougher competition for them.

Players to Watch

Lionel Messi (Inter Miami)

Lionel Messi is yet to score a goal in the Leagues Cup 2025. He did not play the previous match for Inter Miami in the competition due to a minor injury. The Argentine returned to the field for the Herons in their Major League Soccer fixture against the LA Galaxy and scored a goal yet again. With his current form, he is going to be a menace to the opponent’s defence.

Angel Correa (Tigres UANL)

In three Leagues Cup 2025 appearances, Angel Correa has scored four goals and has looked in great touch for Tigres UANL in the attacking front. The 30-year-old striker from Argentina will be yet again ready to lead his side in the attacking front. He will be looking to score a goal or two to help his side in the final third.
