Inter Miami will host New York Red Bulls at the DRV PNK Stadium in MLS on Sunday as both teams look to arrest their downward spiral and return to winning ways.
The Herons are winless in their last four games, losing and drawing twice apiece, to slump to 12th position in the Eastern Conference standings with as many points.
The Red Bulls have drawn their last three games but have produced a better run overall than Miami, losing just twice and sitting just one point behind leaders Philadelphia in fifth.
However, they are unbeaten in their last seven games on the road, a run that started with a 1-1 draw with Nashville in November.
