Inter Miami will look to keep pace in the hunt for the MLS Supporters’ Shield when they visit last-place D.C. United on Saturday night.
The Herons enter the match after defeating Liga MX’s Tigres UANL in the Leagues Cup quarterfinals on Wednesday and earning a win in their last MLS match against the LA Galaxy.
Miami also currently sit fifth in the Eastern Conference, but will be missing Lionel Messi and Jordi Alba through injury as they look to gain ground on conference leaders FC Cincinnati and the Philadelphia Union, as well as Nashville SC and the Columbus Crew.
Given key injuries, here is how head coach Javier Mascherano could line up the Herons against Christian Benteke’s D.C. United.
