Gerardo Martinoās side heads into this competition aiming to pick up better results than in the domestic league. The South Florida team is bottom in the Eastern Conference standings in the 2023 MLS regular season.
Of course, with the arrival of the former Barcelona superstars (Jordi Alba is also coming to Miami), Inter Miami hope they can bounce back fast. However, weāll have to wait a bit longer to see the world-class players in the lineup.
Why Sergio Busquets doesnāt start against Cruz Azul
According to Argentine journalist Gaston Edul, neither Busquets nor Messi will be in the starting lineup against Cruz Azul tonight. Instead, these players will take the field at DRV PNK Stadium: Callender; Fray, Kryvtsov, Miller, Yedlin; Taylor, Cremaschi, Arroyo, David Ruiz, Robinson; Campana.
While fans canāt wait to see them in action, it makes sense that both Busquets and Messi start on the bench since theyāve arrived in Miami only a few days ago. Once they have more training sessions under their belts, the former BarƧa duo should already be in the starting eleven.
