Orlando City SC vs. Inter Miami CF: Game preview
This pandemic-afflicted Major League Soccer season finds these two clubs at opposite ends of the Eastern Conference standings. Orlando City nearly won the MLS is Back Tournament inside the coronavirus-resistant bubble in their own backyard last month and currently sit at fourth in the conference standings at 4-2-4.
Inter Miami has struggled in its first season in the league, however, and are on the outside looking in for the MLS Cup Playoffs, which start in November. They're 2-6-2 heading into Saturday's game against Orlando City.
Previously, 14 teams have moved on to the playoffs, but the pandemic prompted some scheduling changes and 18 teams will advance this year. That means only a handful of clubs will miss out on the postseason.
But even if Inter Miami fails to make the playoffs, they're still claiming some bragging rights over their neighbor. Inter Miami managed to upset Orlando City in a 3-2 win Aug. 22, which marked the team's first win in its history. They began play during the 2020 season.
Orlando City will be looking to avenge that defeat and continue climbing the standings. They're led by forward Chris Mueller, who has scored six goals on just 11 shots on goal this year.
