Scenarios

InterMiami: Firing on all cylinders, it feels like the only team that can stop Inter Miami is Inter Miami. With Messi’s magic, contributions from depth players and even an improving defense, Martino’s men are putting everything in place ahead of the League Cup where they can defend their title. It remains to be seen how Miami will cope with losing players for the Copa America and the Olympics, but that’s why it’s important to accumulate as many points as possible while everyone is available.

Atlanta United: While the defense has been impressive this season, the offense has searched for answers without Giakoiumakis and Almada. Whether it’s things like Caleb Wiley being pushed to the wing or using a rotation of backup forwards, Gonzalo Pineda has rotated when he can, but it’s not working. Almada has a chance to play in this game, which would be quite a boost, but without Giakoiumakis the question of where the goals will come from will remain.

Prediction

Atlanta’s defense will do its best to contain Miami, but the only way to truly contain Messi and company is to attack. Since the Five Stripes cannot do this, they will become the Herons’ latest victim. Take: Inter Miami 2, Atlanta United 1
