Inter Miami host FC Cincinnati at Nu Stadium on Wednesday, October 28 (7:30 PM ET \/ 6:30 PM CT \/ 4:30 PM PT).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Inter Miami have no fresh team-news concerns from the information available, and the headline is that their two biggest attacking threats are fit and firing. Lionel Messi leads the way with 25 goals from 169 shots and 71 on target, while Luis Su\u00e1rez offers a potent second outlet with 15 goals of his own, and Rodrigo De Paul continues to pull strings in midfield with 54 chances created. FC Cincinnati, also with nothing of note on the availability front, will lean on K\u00e9vin Denkey’s 17 goals and Evander’s 82 chances created to try to cause problems at Nu Stadium.<\/p>\n

On paper this looks comfortable for the hosts. Miami sit second in the Eastern Conference<\/a> and have won 3 of their last 5 results shown in the form guide, while Cincinnati have lost 3 of their own last 5 and sit eighth, still needing points to firm up their playoff positioning. Messi and Su\u00e1rez have the quality to stretch a Cincinnati defence that’s shipped enough to leave them on a -nine goal difference, and this one should produce goals at both ends before the hosts pull clear.<\/p>\n\n\n
