Inter Miami
Inter Miami may rest their main players after qualifying for the next stage, even though the prize of a top-table finish is there to be won. Lionel Messi is still injured from the Copa America, but Miami has the duo of Luis Suarez and Matias Roja. Miami loves the Leagues Cup, netting multiple times in recent games, excluding the 1-1 in the final against Nashville last year. In their last Match, the Herons defeated Puebla 2-0. Against Mexican opposition, Inter Miami has found success in teams that have not played in the Liga MX in recent times. The MLS team has one loss in six games.
Tigres UANL
The eight-time Liga MX champions, Tigres UANL, are enjoying a good run of form. The Mexican side won their group game thanks to a dramatic late winner against Puebla in their Leagues Cup opener. Tigres like to win close matches. All three of their group-stage victories in the Leagues Cup have been by a single goal because their defensive solidity is a key strength. However, manager Veljko Paunovic will miss David Ayala in his game because he has a knee injury. The coach is likely to rotate his team ahead of the knockout stages.
