DC United: Current form and team news
DC United are so far unbeaten in the MLS, with a win against New England and draws against Portland and Cincinnati. Not a bad start at all for a team that missed out on playoffs last season! Besides, in the season-opener, DC United's main attacker, Christian Benteke, netted a hat-trick but then was forced off the pitch due to a knock.
The Belgian could miss the upcoming game as well, and so can Steven Birnbaum (DEF), Tyler Miller (GK), Russell Canouse (MID), and Mohanad Jeahze (DEF).
On the bright side, Chilean midfielder Martin Rodriguez has recovered and will most likely feature on Saturday.
Inter Miami: Current form and team news
Unlike their opponents, Inter Miami have already played six games: four in MLS and two in the CONCACAF Champions Cup. It looks like the club prioritises the latter over the former, fielding all their biggest stars in the cup games.
In the MLS, Inter Miami's line-ups aren't always as strong as in the cup tournament, and at times, it's a problem. Out of four league games, they have two wins, one draw and one defeat.
However, despite dropping points, Inter Miami are still leading at the top of the Western Conference.
Against DC United, Inter will be missing Franco Negri (DEF), Benjamin Cremaschi (MID), Facundo Farias (MID) and Robbie Robinson (FWD). Defender Ian Fray is a doubt but since he has returned to training, he could feature tomorrow.
