Inter Miami begins a stretch of three games in seven days by facing a familiar foe on the road.
It’s a rematch of last year’s Leagues Cup final as Inter Miami takes on Nashville SC on Saturday, June 29 at Geodis Park in Nashville.
Inter Miami remain in first place in MLS despite a bye week last weekend, which allowed them to heal up and prepare for a busy week. Gerardo Martino’s side will still be without their star forwards, Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, and midfielder Matias Rojas due to Copa America.
Nashville SC meanwhile has struggled to find consistency this season, but they may have found something under interim head coach Rumba Munthali. Nashville is undefeated in its last three matches, including two straight wins, and Walker Zimmerman is back from injury to lead the backline.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch it across the world, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.

Inter Miami vs. Nashville SC prediction
Inter Miami begins a stretch of three-straight games on the road in a week. Coach Gerardo Martino will likely rotate his squad over the course of the week but it will be a huge challenge for his club to continue their success without the likes of Messi and Suarez. Busquets and Alba will be on their A-game, but Inter Miami will need a huge night from Leo Campana, Robert Taylor, and Julian Gressel against this surging Nashville side.
Prediction: Inter Miami 1-2 Nashville SC
