Inter Miami are on a hot streak, with an unbeaten run of six away games in the regular season. The Herons will be hoping to keep the momentum going against Nashville SC at GEODIS Park. The Florida side are not only dominating on the pitch, but also showing an impressive consistency that puts them as serious title contenders. With 41 points, they lead the Supporters' Shield standings, two points ahead of second place, and have the most prolific attack in the league with 46 goals. If there's a team to beat, it's this one.

On the other side, we have Nashville SC, a team that has shown grit and determination. Occupying seventh place in the Eastern Conference, Nashville are far from easy opponents. They're coming off a solid win over New York City FC, and playing at home, they want to use that momentum to take down the Miami giants. The team knows that a win this Saturday could completely change the course of the season.

In the last meeting between the two teams, Inter Miami emerged victorious with a convincing 3-1 win. But as we know, every game is a new story, and Nashville are determined to rewrite the ending this time. Inter Miami's defense, led by Ian Fray, will have to be at its best to contain the Boys in Gold's aggressive attack.

Inter Miami coach Tata Martino has a clear mission: to keep his team focused and secure another away win. The unbeaten run is a mark they want to extend, and to do so, they will rely on the talent of players like Leonardo Campana, who has been decisive at crucial moments. On the other hand, Nashville coach Gary Smith knows that the key to winning this game lies in exploiting the gaps in the opposition's defense. It's quite a challenge, but soccer is made up of surprises and great stories of overcoming.
