Miami Back to Winning Ways
Inter Miami went on a poor run of form in August and are yet to get back to their best.
Guillermo Hoyos stepped down in September with Kily González becoming the new manager. His first game in charge was a 2-0 win over Cruz Azul in the Campeones Cup final.
Inter returned to MLS with a 2-2 draw against San Diego and 2-1 defeat at Columbus, highlighting their inability to keep clean sheets in the competition.
Miami are coming off a 4-0 win against DC United in a match where they had 16-16 shots but 9-2 on target. Luis Suárez scored twice followed by two to Lionel Messi who leads MLS with 23 goals.
New York Finding it Hard to Win
New York City have been finding it hard to win, just one victory in their previous 12 matches.
It came in September, a 2-0 victory at Real Salt Lake where Nicolás Fernández Mercau opened the scoring.
Pascal Jansen’s side haven’t kept a clean sheet since, including a 1-0 home defeat to cross town rivals New York Red Bulls. They lost 2-1 at Chicago on Saturday, conceding both goals against 10 men.
