Game Preview

Obviously, most of their goals were the work of Lionel Messi. Still, even without him, they’ve been great offensively. In their previous two MLS games, they scored 5 goals in total. The best thing is that those goals were scored by four different players, proving that Inter Miami is much more than just a Lionel Messi team.
Inter Miami vs. Puebla Prediction
Puebla is one of the worst teams in the Liga MX, which is why the top favorite for winning the 2024 MLS should have no problems beating them. Sure, it would be awesome to have Lionel Messi on the field on Saturday, but even without him, the Herons can grab a win.
