Inter Miami are looking to avoid a first round exit for the second straight season when they welcome Nashville SC to Chase Stadium for Game 3 of the first round best-of-three series on Saturday night.
After picking up a 3–1 win in Game 1 with an outstanding performance from superstar Lionel Messi, the Herons faltered in Game 2, allowing Nashville to level the series on their home pitch at GEODIS Park with a 2–1 victory, setting up a winner-take-all Game 3 back in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
While Nashville hope to extend a season that saw them win the 2025 U.S. Open Cup, Miami are looking to avoid disaster, having lost in Game 3 of the first round last season to Atlanta United. At the same time, a Miami loss would send Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets into retirement.
Here is guide to Game 3.
