Inter Miami CF II is returning to the pitch this weekend at DRV PNK Stadium, facing FC Cincinnati 2 for the second time this season on Sunday. The match will kick off at 8 p.m. ET on June 19, and will be streamed live on mlsnextpro.com.

"Every team we've played this year has been really competitive, and Cincinnati is no different. It was a very strong performance when we last played Cincinnati, that game could have gone either way. We expect the same on Sunday," said head coach Darren Powell.

Earlier this season, Inter Miami II secured a 0-1 road victory against FC Cincinnati 2 in a match that saw Tyler Bagley notch his first goal for the squad, and goalkeeper Andre Zuluaga preserve the clean sheet with a penalty save in the 21st minute.

Inter Miami II's last match saw a pair of milestones for young Academy products, as Israel Boatwright made his first professional start and Bryan Destin made his professional debut as a substitute.

FC Cincinnati 2 is currently in last place of the MLS NEXT Pro Eastern Conference standings, with nine points (3W-7L-0D). The club, however, travels to Miami following two consecutive victories, defeating Orlando City B 3-5 on May 29, and Rochester New York FC 1-0 at home on June 11.
