Overview
- Inter Miami lead the best-of-three 1-0 after a 3-1 Game 1 win, so a victory tonight would eliminate Nashville and otherwise force a decisive Game 3 in Fort Lauderdale on November 8.
- Kickoff is 7:30 p.m. EDT at Geodis Park in Nashville, with BetMGM listing Miami at +144 and Nashville at +153.
- Lionel Messi scored twice in the opener and enters Game 2 as Miami’s leading scorer this season.
- Nashville seek a response after being stifled in Game 1, leaning on top threats Sam Surridge and Hany Mukhtar while trying to halt a 10-match winless run against Miami.
- Miami goalkeeper Rocco Rios Novo has retained the starting role, and injury reports list David Ruiz out for Miami with multiple Nashville players also not expected to play.
