Inter Miami vs New York City FC: Storylines and Head-to-Head

Inter Miami come from a heartbreaking, road defeat to Atlanta United which left them nearly out of this year's playoffs. The South Florida team got some results but its poor weak start to the season is proving costly, and it needs basically a miracle to get into the next stage of the competition.

New York City FC, meanwhile, are within touching distance of the postseason after making it two wins in a row when they defeated Chicago Fire 1-0 in Week 33. But the league is not over and they still need to get the job done.

This will be the fourth meeting between these two sides. NYCFC have been absolutely dominant so far, winning all three times they met Inter Miami. This season, they won 2-0.
