Nashville SC vs Inter Miami: Watch, Stream MLS Match for Free, Including Lionel Messi

Nashville SC seeks revenge against Inter Miami in their second MLS match since the Leagues Cup final defeat.

Less than two weeks ago, Nashville SC suffered a defeat at the hands of Inter Miami and Lionel Messi in the Leagues Cup final. Now, they have an opportunity for redemption as they face Miami once again.

Nashville will travel to Florida to take on Miami on Wednesday evening in their second MLS match since the season resumed following the Leagues Cup break. While Nashville had a strong run in the Leagues Cup before their loss to Miami, their recent form in the MLS has been less than stellar. They have lost their last four league games, three of them by multiple goals. Their most recent defeat was a 4-0 loss to Atlanta United.

Currently, Nashville sits in seventh place in the Eastern Conference with a record of 11-5-9 and 38 points. The top seven teams in each conference secure a spot in the MLS Cup Playoffs first round, while the eighth and ninth seeds compete in the Wild Card round.

On the other hand, Miami's chances of making it to the postseason are much slimmer. With a record of 6-3-14 and 21 points, they are currently in 14th place, 11 points behind the ninth-place Chicago Fire in the Eastern Conference. However, the presence of Messi gives them hope. Miami has won all nine games in which the international superstar has played. Messi even scored as a substitute in Miami's 2-0 victory over the New York Red Bulls in their last match.

Messi has been a key player for Miami, starting in all but one of their Leagues Cup matches and playing the full 90 minutes in five of them. He also played 120 minutes in their U.S. Open Cup semifinal against FC Cincinnati, which they won on penalties. In the match against the Red Bulls, Messi came off the bench and played 30 minutes.

After playing a total of 210 minutes in just four days, Messi was in need of a break last weekend. However, Miami coach Gerardo Martino has confirmed that Messi will start against Nashville.

Nashville may be without two of their designated players for the match against Miami. Center back Walker Zimmerman, who missed the game against Atlanta due to a lower body injury, is listed as questionable for Wednesday's match. Striker Sam Surridge is also questionable with a lower body injury.

In conclusion, Nashville SC will have a chance to avenge their loss to Inter Miami and Lionel Messi in the Leagues Cup final. They will face Miami once again in their second MLS match since the season resumed. Nashville will be looking to improve their recent form, while Miami will rely on Messi's presence to secure a victory. The match promises to be an exciting showdown between two competitive teams.
