Inter Miami is preparing to play in the quarterfinals of the 2025 Leagues Cup against TigresUNAL. The Herons will play at Chase Stadium against the Mexican team, but there is more worry in regards to Lionel Messi.

Inter Miami will look to keep pace in the hunt for the MLS Supporters’ Shield when they visit last-place D.C. United on Saturday night. The Herons enter the match after defeating Liga MX’s Tigres UANL in the Leagues Cup quarterfinals on Wednesday and earning a win in their last MLS match against the LA Galaxy.

Lionel Messi, who returned from injury last weekend, suffered a setback and had to miss the Leagues Cup quarterfinal against Tigres.
