Storylines
Inter Miami has started the season with one win and one draw, both notable for their circumstances.

Ustari, Weigandt, Aviles, Lujan, Allen, Allende, Redondo, Busquets, Segovia, Messi, Suarez
Prediction
With Inter Miami as the favorites, they are expected to advance easily if they avoid unnecessary struggles, especially against a Sporting Kansas City team that may not have improved much since last year. Pick: Inter Miami 2, Sporting Kansas City 0
