Inter Miami vs Nashville Preview and Team News

Inter Miami Team News

Inter Miami couldn’t close out the series in Nashville and suffered a 1-2 loss at Geodis Park on Saturday, November 1. This means they’ll return home to play a decisive, winner-takes-all match in this three-game series. Even though playing with your back against the wall is never easy, there aren’t many clubs in MLS that can withstand the pressure better than the Herons.

It only takes a quick look at the squad to see that Inter Miami shouldn’t have a lot of problems dealing with the pressure of an elimination fixture in the MLS Playoffs, especially since it’ll be in the comfort of their home venue, Chase Stadium. 

With players like Lionel Messi, Jordi Alba, Luis Suárez, and Sergio Busquets leading the way, Inter Miami should feel confident about their chances of getting a positive result in this clash.

As if their experience wasn’t enough, the team are also likely to clinch a positive result here based on how good they’ve been at home. The 1-2 defeat in Nashville snapped their four-game winning run across all competitions, but when it comes to playing at Chase Stadium, Javier Mascherano’s men have won six of their last seven encounters there. That includes three in a row while averaging 3.67 goals scored per outing.

Inter Miami predicted lineup vs Nashville (4-4-2): Ríos Novo; Weigandt, Luján, Falcón, Jordi Alba; Allende, De Paul, Busquets, Rodríguez; Messi, Suárez.

Nashville Team News

Nashville have their backs against the wall just like Inter Miami. However, it’s not a stretch to say that their situation is far more complicated than their opponents’. 

To start, the Coyotes aren’t known for being a dangerous team on the road, and they come into this game having won just two of their previous 10 contests away from Geodis Park (W2, D1, L7).

As if those road woes weren’t enough, the fact that Nashville have lost in their previous four visits to Chase Stadium – while allowing two or more goals each time – is also far from encouraging. 

That run includes two defeats this season where the squad have looked overmatched to the tune of a combined 3.21-1.24 disadvantage in the xG department.

Simply put, Nashville will need to deliver a perfect performance on both ends of the pitch if they want to pull off an upset and move into the next round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. That would include defeating Miami on the road for the first time since the 2021 season, a complicated task given how good the Herons have been at home in recent months.

Nashville predicted lineup vs Inter Miami (3-4-3): Willis; Bauer, Zimmerman, Palacios; Najar, Tagseth, Yazbek, Corcoran; Muyl, Surridge, Mukhtar.

Inter Miami vs Nashville Prediction, Odds

Six of Inter Miami’s previous nine home matches have ended with wins for the hosts and both clubs on the scoresheet. Eight of their last 10 fixtures across all competitions have also featured goals on both sides, so all signs point to another action-packed contest.

The teams’ four previous head-to-heads in the 2025 season have all produced a winner and goals at both ends. Additionally, Inter Miami have secured three points in all but the last meeting on November 1. The Herons grabbed 3-1 and 2-1 victories at Chase Stadium this season and have won in five of their last six encounters with Nashville at home. Don’t be surprised if that trend continues.

Inter Miami vs Nashville Betting Tip

Inter Miami are among the biggest favourites to win the 2025 MLS Cup title, but for that to happen, they need to secure a victory in this match to move into the next round. And, as has often been the case, Lionel Messi is expected to play a prominent role in carrying the team when they need him most. The eight-time Ballon d’Or winner has been on a tear in front of goal in recent weeks.

Messi has scored three of Inter Miami’s four goals in the current series against Nashville. Moreover, the Argentine superstar is on a run of cracking the scoresheet in eight of the Herons’ last nine outings, tallying 12 goals and nine assists over that stretch. 

Having scored Inter Miami’s first goal in both games this series, Messi is expected to appear once again in this series decider. He’s a strong candidate to break the deadlock and set the tone as his side aim to clinch a quarterfinal berth here.
