FC Dallas - Inter Miami: times, how to watch on TV, stream online | MLS Friendly

After a underwhelming preseason draw in El Salvador, Lionel Messi and the Herons travel to the Cotton Bowl for their second friendly.

FC Dallas - Inter Miami: how to watch
MEGAN BRIGGSAFP

Inter Miami’s 2024 got off to a less-than-thrilling start at Estadio Cuscatlán, a 0-0 draw against the El Salvador national team in their first friendly of preseason. But while the on-field action didn´t produce a goal, it did leave MLS defenders with a worrying sight: Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez reunited.

Herons head coach Tata Martino opted to play Messi and Suárez - as well as Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba - from the start, giving the ex-Barça stars 45 minutes on the field together before substituting them all at the break. With that in mind, we’re expecting to see more from Messi and co. against FC Dallas on Monday evening.

Miami and Dallas met in last year’s Leagues Cup and played out a thrilling 4-4 draw, which the Herons eventually won on penalties. Dallas, playing at home, took a 3-1 lead but were pegged back in the late stages. Messi scored twice at Toyota Stadium and successfully converted his spot kick in the shoot-out.

What time does FC Dallas - Inter Miami start?

The game between FC Dallas - Inter Miami will be played on Monday, 22 January with kick off at 6pm ET / 3pm PT.

The preseason friendly will take place at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas, which has a maximum capacity of 92,100. The stadium has previously been home to the Dallas Texans, Dallas Cowboys and has hosted the State Fair Classic (college football) since 1925.

FC Dallas - Inter Miami prediction

The last time these two sides met Miami were riding the crest of a wave, powered by Lionel Messi’s incredible Leagues Cup-winning form. The situation is different for this preseason friendly, with Martino looking to build a more cohesive and consistent team that can perform across a long season.

The Herons looked rusty in their opening friendly against El Salvador, but they will hope to find their rhythm on their return to the United States.

Prediction: FC Dallas 1-2 Inter Miami.
