Inter Miami vs Monterrey Prediction

The Herons have enjoyed an unbeaten debut in the competition, with a win and a draw in two games thus far. They have suffered just one loss at home in five games this term, recording three wins, and will look to build on that form.

Head coach Tata Martino faces a selection dilemma ahead of this crucial match and Lionel Messi remains a key doubt following a hamstring injury picked up against Nashville in the round of 16 last month.

Facundo Farias, Benjamin Cremaschi, and Robbie Robinson are long-term absentees, and Federico Redondo joined the list with a ligament injury. Nicolás Freire and Sergii Kryvtsov were absent against New York City on Saturday and face late fitness tests.

Rayados suffered their first loss of the season on Saturday, falling to a 2-0 home defeat to Guadalajara. Gerardo Arteaga and Jorge Rodríguez were sent off, while Héctor Moreno was at fault for an own goal. Nonetheless, they are unbeaten in their travels this season and have won four of their last five away games.

Stefan Medina is the only injury concern for them in this match and Rodrigo Aguirre has also not traveled with the squad due to suspension.

Miami's lengthy injury list might cause them some problems but considering their home advantage, they should be able to hold the visitors to a draw.
