After two straight games at home, Inter Miami will play away from home against Atlanta United at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Inter Miami have two straight wins in the MLS and will look to continue climbing up the Supporters’ Shield standings after securing their spot in the MLS playoffs this past week.
In their previous match, Inter Miami defeated New York City FC 2-0 at home with goals from German Berterame and Rodrigo De Paul. Lionel Messi played the game and provided the assist for Rodrigo De Paul’s goal.

Messi is expected to play for Inter Miami tonight against Atlanta United as he traveled with the rest of the team. There was uncertainty about whether Messi would play after a report suggesting that the Argentine star would travel to Spain for an award ceremony.
Inter Miami head coach Kily Gonzalez confirmed that Messi will travel to Spain next week for an award ceremony but will be available for Inter Miami’s MLS games tonight against Atlanta United and next week’s game against Red Bull New York.
