Match preview

Orlando wants to bounce back after a 2-1 home loss to the New York Red Bulls. Head coach Oscar Pareja is adopting a youthful approach after the departures of Pedro Gallese and Alex Freeman. 25-year-old Croatian star Marco Pašalić will be their primary creative influence, supported by 20-year-old Brazilian winger Tiago.

Defending champions Inter Miami got humbled in a season-opening 3-0 defeat to LAFC. Life was never going to be straightforward after the retirements of Spanish legends Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets.  Their former Barcelona teammate, the one and only Lionel Messi, could play a deeper midfield role for Miami this season to free up a big-money signing, Germán Berterame, to pull the strings in the final third. Messi will also be excited to link up with compatriot Rodrigo De Paul. The midfield dynamo arrived from Atletico Madrid last month for a fee of €15 million ($18 million), and big things will be expected of the 31-year-old.

Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belongs on the big screen. Here is how to get the VPN working on your TV:

• Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
• Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don't support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
