Overview

  • Inter Miami face Tigres on Wednesday at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, with streaming on Apple TV via MLS Season Pass.
  • Coach Javier Mascherano said Messi trained separately on Tuesday and will be evaluated on matchday, noting he was not ruled out after feeling uncomfortable in his 45-minute return versus LA Galaxy.
  • Messi recently returned from a minor muscle issue and came off the bench Saturday to score and set up a goal in a 3-1 win over the Galaxy.
  • Tigres traveled to South Florida and trained at the Florida Blue Training Center, and forward Ángel Correa said they will go out to win the quarterfinal.
  • The knockout winner advances to a semifinal against the Toluca–Orlando City victor, and pundits have labeled Inter Miami and Tigres as leading contenders for the 2025 Leagues Cup.
