New England vs Inter Miami Preview

The New England Revolution will face off against Inter Miami CF at Gillette Stadium in a Major League Soccer showdown next. Inter Miami currently leads the Eastern Conference with a record of 5-3-2 after 10 matches. They’ve won their last two games and have gone 3-2-1 in their last six matches.

Inter Miami CF has displayed a potent offense this season, ranking third in goals scored and shots on goal in MLS. Lionel Messi has been instrumental for the team, ranking second in the league with seven goals.

Conversely, New England Revolution aims to break a two-match losing streak as they host Inter Miami. New England Revolution has struggled this season, securing only one win and sitting at 15th in the Eastern Conference.

Their sole victory in the last five matches was against Charlotte FC on April 6th.

The Revolution faced another match without Peyton Miller due to a foot injury. Brandon Bye and Dylan Borrero, both recovering from torn ACLs from the previous season, were also absent. Although Jonathan Mensah didn’t play in the loss against NYCFC or the subsequent game against Toronto, there’s hope for his return soon from a hamstring injury.

Additionally, Federico Redondo has been ruled out due to a knee injury, while Robert Taylor, who has scored two goals in seven MLS matches this season, is also uncertain due to a hamstring problem.

New England vs Inter Miami predicted lineups

New England Revolution

Beyond the usual suspects, Caleb Porter doesn’t have too many injury concerns and while his side’s form might cause him to switch things up, chances are he keeps a similar side.

Predicted XI: Ravas; Lima, Kessler, Romney, Jones; Polster, Harkes; N. Gil, C. Gil, Chancalay; Vrioni

Inter Miami:

Gerardo Martino does have Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez back and firing but he does have more than a few injury concerns going into the clash. That doesn’t mean he’ll move things around especially given the run of form his side are on.

Predicted XI: Callender, Aviles, Freire, Gressel; Weigandt, Ruiz, Busquets, Alba; Messi, Suarez, Gomez
