Inter Miami host CF Montreal at Nu Stadium on Saturday, August 29 (7:30 PM ET \/ 6:30 PM CT \/ 4:30 PM PT).<\/p>\n
There’s no fresh team news to report out of South Florida, with both sides ostensibly at full strength heading into this one. That means the headline names should all be on the field: Lionel Messi, who has 14 goals in 1,550 minutes this season, alongside Luis Su\u00e1rez and Germ\u00e1n Berterame up top for the hosts, while Rodrigo De Paul continues to pull strings from midfield with 37 chances created. CF Montreal will lean on Prince Owusu, who has 13 goals from 50 shots, with Wikelman Carmona and Matthew Longstaff supplying the service behind him.<\/p>\n
This has the look of a game Inter Miami should control without it turning into a rout. Montreal have shown in recent weeks they can still find the net, but their defence has shipped goals at a -10 difference across the season, and that’s the kind of gap Messi and company tend to exploit at Nu Stadium. Expect a game with goals at both ends, with the hosts’ extra quality proving the difference by the finish.<\/p>\n\n\n
