Miller and Sailor on for Inter Miami

Aviles and Serhiy Kryvtsov, the players making way.

as.com

So, not too much to set the pulse racing from that first 45 minutes of action.

Inter Miami are a very average side without the influence and creativity of Messi, Alba and Busquets. Yedlin and Campana look good for Miami in flashes but Tata Martino's team lack any consistency.

Orlando started well and had the better chances over the first 45 minutes.

The whistle sounds and we go to the break with no goals.

Miami do really well as Campana and Yedlin work well and the ball is out for a corner.

Schlegel is furious as tempers start to fray in the derby.

Campana tries the most audacious flick which doesn't really come off but shows the confidence level of the striker.

Campana almost heads home but the Orlando keeper palms away.

Josef Martinez is really the shadow of the player he used to be ... the Venezuela striker yet to win any of the 50-50 balls he has disputed so far this evening. 

If ever a player needed a big goal to provide an injection of confidence.

Orlando almost take the lead as the ball fizzes in from the left hand side and none of the three players in purple can get that all important touch.

Once again, major question marks over the Inter Miami defending.

Big noise levels at Exploria Stadium, the home fans certainly up for the derby.

All set in Florida.

The home side start the game.

The teams take to the pitch... the battle of the side in purple from West Florida against Miami in pink from the south of the Sunshine State !

as.com

The big question....

...is can Inter Miami deliver without the three former FC Barcelona stars?

We've seen a degree of inconsistency from Tata Martino's men in recent weeks and the team certainly miss the creative influence of Busquets and the calm and magic that Messi offers.

Josef Martinez needs to step up and provide the goods and what better place to start than with the Sunshine derby.

A win would push the Herons up to joint 11th in the table with Inter Miami still with games in hand.

...or will it be pink?

Florida is purple?

Inter Miami yet to win in Orlando

Inter Miami: one to watch

With no Messi for Miami, the spotlight falls on Leonardo Campana with the Ecuadorian striker having bagged nine goals this season so far.

He opened the scoring last week at Atlanta in a game that ultimately went against Miami and popped up with a brace in the recent win over Sporting KC.

Orlando City: one to watch

Uruguayan striker Facundo Torres will be looking to add to his twelve MLS 2023 strikes for the season to date.

Earlier this summer, Torres scored his first international goal in a 2–0 friendly victory over Cuba and was an unused sub by the South American side at the 2022 Qatar World Cup.

What would defeat in Orlando mean for Miami?

A loss in the derby would by no means rule Tata Martino's men out of their quest for a playoff place, as the games become less frequent ahead of the 21 October MLS Decision Day, a failure to pick up points would be a blow for Miami with six teams having already mathematically secured the nine postseason places avaiable.
