Can you imagine a 4-0 home rout followed by mixed results? Inter Miami demolished DC on Oct 10, after a 1‑2 defeat to Columbus on Sep 27 and a 2‑2 draw with San Diego on Sep 20. Their recent form swings between dominance and wobble.
Inter Miami’s starting eleven is now official.
Kily González lines up a 4‑3‑3 that spots German Berterame, Luis Suárez and Lionel Messi up front. Rodrigo De Paul and Casemiro sit deep with Matías Galarza, offering both creative release and defensive cover. Sergio Reguilón, Micael and Gonzalo Luján shield Dayne St Clair, and no players are listed as missing.
Inter Miami confirmed starting XI (4-3-3): Dayne St. Clair, Sergio Reguilón, Micael, Casemiro, Gonzalo Luján, Matías Galarza, David Ayala, Rodrigo De Paul, German Berterame, Luis Suárez, Lionel Messi. Coach: Kily González. For my money, this forward line could overwhelm any defense.
NYCFC’s squad is set. Will this formation give them the edge to topple Miami’s star‑studded attack?
Pascal Jansen opts for a 4‑2‑3‑1 with NYCFC, positioning Andrés Perea and Aiden O’Neill as the double pivot behind a trio of Hannes Wolf, Agustín Ojeda and Nicolás Fernández. Alonso Martínez leads the line as central striker. James Sands and Thiago Martins anchor the back four, while Nico Cavallo and Tayvon Gray patrol the flanks ahead of Matt Freese. No absences are reported, so the coach can field his intended eleven.
