It’s a year of great expectations for Inter Miami, as it will head into the MLS with its strongest team ever led by Lionel Messi. Their second game of the year will be the only preseason fixture against an MLS team, FC Dallas, on Monday. This game could be significant in terms of preparation and will help assess where the club stands.

Inter Miami had a pretty mundane outing in El Salvador and will look to add more flavor against Dallas FC. After finishing 14th in last year’s Eastern Conference, this will be the first chance for an image flip for the Herons.

Expected Squads

Inter Miami has already released their traveling squad to Texas. The club received a huge blow during their last game, with Facundo Farías sustaining an injury. However, the player came in as a substitute for Messi, and we need not expect many changes to their last game.

Inter Miami predicted XI: CJ Dos Santos (GK), Noah Allen, Julian Gressel, Tomás Avilés, DeAndre Yedlin, Benjamin Cremaschi, Sergio Busquets, Gregore, Luis Suarez, and Lionel Messi.

FC Dallas predicted XI: Jimmy Maurer, Geovane, Omar Gonzalez, Sebastien Ibeagha, Ema Twumasi, Bernard Kamungo, Asier Illarramendi, Liam Fraser, Paul Arriola, Jesús Ferreira, and Dante Sealy.

Prediction

FC Dallas reached the playoffs last season, and this year, the club has seemed to have some young attacking additions like Malik Henry-Scott and Enes Sali. The club has also received a defensive boost from center-back Omar Gonzalez. However, Inter Miami’s strong attack will give them a slight advantage, and we could expect a 2-1 win for the guests.

Head-to-Head

David Beckham’s club faced the team from Texas five times in three years, but could never manage a win. However, the club won the penalty shootout in their previous meeting in the League’s Cup Round of 16. Inter Miami H2H against Dallas FC: 0 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses.
