The New England Revolution and Inter Miami are set to meet on April 27th, Saturday 7:30 PM EST. At the moment it’s a tale of two teams in two different directions, Inter Miami is in second in the MLS East while the Revs are rock bottom in the conference.
The Revolution are off to a horrific start, winless in their first five matches 0-4-1 in the season. Caleb Porter has not been able to find the answers for a team that features some interesting talent in MLS with Tomás Chancalay, Ian Harkes, Carles Gil, DeJuan Jones, and Noel Buck.
Despite a rocky start The Revolution are looking for April 27th to be a huge date for the club as Gillette Stadium is preparing for a historic crowd against Inter Miami.

Truly a scenario that would be unthinkable today.
