Cincinnati will take confidence from their domestic record heading into this fixture.

The hosts sit third in the table with 11 points, behind New England Revolution (12 pts) and St. Louis City SC (15 pts).

The Orange and Blue could, however, lose their place if they misfire against Inter Miami. Seattle Sounders, Los Angeles FC, and Atlanta United all follow closely on 10 points each. Cincinnati and Inter Miami played out a 4-4 draw in their last league contest, but the hosts prevailed 3-1 in their previous clash.

The visitors will seek to fix their rough patch of form that is increasingly becoming a cause for concern. Inter Miami have endured a three-game back-to-back defeat, dropping to 16th spot with six points. Head coach Phil Neville has attributed the hiccups to the horrendous injuries they are currently battling.

The Herons will strive to address their weaknesses on the road as well. They are yet to win or draw away from home this term, losing the two matches they have played so far. But the situation appears to have extended to their home games, following a 3-2 defeat to Chicago Fire in their last meeting.
