Inter Miami CF are back in action on Saturday night for the second matchday of the 2025 Leagues Cup, as they take on Liga MX’s Necaxa at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Although head coach Javier Mascherano’s Herons weren’t outstanding in their tournament-opening 2–1 win over Atlas, a late goal from Marcelo Weigandt sealed the victory and put them in a strong position.
Meanwhile, that game also saw the Inter Miami debut of Rodrigo De Paul, and another standout performance from Lionel Messi.
Likely needing to win all three Phase One matches to advance as one of the top four MLS clubs, here is how Miami could line up against Necaxa, before looking onto their Phase One finale against Pumas UNAM.
