Get all the details for the upcoming MLS clash between Inter Miami and the Columbus Crew, including probable lineups, key statistics, head-to-head history, and broadcast information.
Inter Miami is set to play its final regular-season match before the Leagues Cup break, facing a Columbus Crew team in a game of contrasting fortunes. The Herons are flying high and aiming for the top spot in the Eastern Conference, while the Crew are desperate for points to keep their playoff dreams alive.
Currently, Inter Miami is in peak form, riding a six-game winning streak that has propelled them to second place in the East with 37 points, just two behind Nashville. Their solid campaign includes eleven wins, four draws, and only two losses. The team has also proven its depth, securing victories even without its biggest stars, Messi and De Paul.
The situation is quite different for the Ohio-based club. The Columbus Crew sit in eleventh place, outside the playoff qualification zone, with 19 points from five wins, four draws, and eight losses. Their inconsistent season makes this a must-win game to stay in contention.
