Inter Miami CF host Nashville SC at Nu Stadium in a Major League Soccer Eastern Conference fixture that carries genuine weight at the top of the table.
Angel Guillermo Hoyos's side sit second in the East and come into this off the back of a 1-1 draw with Chicago Fire, a result that extended a run of mixed form for the defending MLS Cup champions.
Nashville arrive as the conference leaders under BJ Callaghan, though they travel to Florida having just lost 2-1 to Toronto FC in their most recent outing — a result that snapped a strong run of form.
Messi's presence continues to define Inter Miami's identity. The Argentine remains contracted to the club through 2028 and is the central figure around which Hoyos has built his squad.
Nashville, for their part, have been the most consistent side in the Eastern Conference across the bulk of the season, losing just once in their previous four matches before the Toronto setback.
With both teams locked in a fight for conference supremacy, this fixture has real implications for the final stretch of the regular season. Read on for everything you need to know about how to watch the game live.
