Why you should back Inter Miami
Messi has transformed both the culture and the level of performance for Inter Miami. The club has not lost with Messi in the lineup, winning nine straight games. That includes an impressive run in the Leagues Cup, lifting the trophy after seven consecutive wins. Inter Miami scored at least three goals in five of those seven matches and also defeated Nashville SC on penalty kicks in the final. In addition to the confidence that comes with that head-to-head win, Nashville just flopped in a 4-0 loss to Atlanta United, and this match will take place in Fort Lauderdale.
Nashville have lost more than half (seven) of its 13 MLS road matches this season, and Inter Miami can lean on Messi. The international superstar has 11 goals in nine games since joining Inter Miami, including a goal in the 89th minute of his MLS debut against the New York Red Bulls last week. Inter Miami have also been much better at home this season, with or without Messi, and that friendly environment can help the club against Nashville SC. See picks at SportsLine.
Why you should back Nashville SC
Nashville SC won the most recent MLS match against Inter Miami, and Inter Miami have only four wins in MLS home games this season. While the landscape has changed with Messi, Inter Miami have only one win in the last 12 MLS games overall, and Nashville SC has clear strengths.
