FC Cincinnati host Inter Miami at TQL Stadium on Wednesday, May 13, kicking off at 7:30 PM ET.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Herons arrive in the Queen City sitting third in the Eastern Conference with 22 points, while FCC sit sixth in the East on 16 \u2014 a six-point gap that makes this a genuine statement chance for Cincinnati. Both teams have been inconsistent, but the star quality in Miami’s attack makes this one of the evening’s marquee fixtures on the MLS<\/a> schedule.<\/p>\n

The Orange and Blue are unbeaten in six, though they’ve drawn four times during that run. Meanwhile, Inter Miami have won three of their last five, with Lionel Messi continuing to drive results even through some rocky home form in their new stadium.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 24 goals Cincinnati have scored in 12 games rank among the highest in the East, but so do the 27 conceded \u2014 they thrill and frustrate in roughly equal measure. Miami’s own 26 goals in 12 outings confirms why this game has goals written all over it.<\/p>\n\n\n
