Players to Watch

Tai Baribo (Philadelphia Union)

Tai Baribo has five goal involvements in the last three games for the Philadelphia Union. He is going to play an important role in the attacking front. Baribo has scored 11 goals in 13 league games this season, which makes him the top goal scorer in MLS this season as of now.

He looks in good touch and is going to cause problems for the Herons.

Lionel Messi (Inter Miami)

Lionel Messi has not been able to perform at his best in the last few matches for Inter Miami. Leo Messi is still the top goal scorer for the Herons this season. The Argentine forward has scored five goals and has four assists to his name in 10 MLS matches this season.

He might end up as the game changer for his side here.
