The Return of the Rivalry

Inter Miami will meet Orlando City once again for the latest edition of the matchup between the Florida sides. This time, the rivalry means even more for both sides, as they will now play for the right to advance to the Round of 16 of the 2023 Leagues Cup.

Miami Looks to Stay Hot

Coming into the knockout stages of the tournament after a strong showing in the group stage of the competition with victories over LIGA MX side Cruz Azul and Atlanta United, Inter Miami will look to carry on with its strong form in the inaugural edition of the Leagues Cup.

First, Miami defeated Cruz Azul 2-1 on July 21 after Lionel Messi found the back of the net through a last-minute free kick to give the Club the win on his historic debut. Then, on July 25, Inter Miami topped Atlanta United with a convincing 4-0 scoreline, tying the team's largest margin of victory in Club history thanks to a pair of braces from Messi and Robert Taylor.

Jordi Alba Potential Debut

After arriving in Miami to join up with his new teammates earlier this week, star Spanish defender and former FC Barcelona player Jordi Alba will be available for selection on Wednesday night against Orlando. Alba, a longtime teammate of Messi and legendary midfielder Sergio Busquets, is the latest in the line of international stars to join the Club. During his tenure at Barcelona, Alba helped the Blaugrana win six LaLiga titles, five Copa del Rey titles, and played a key role in their run to win the UEFA Champions League title in 2015, making 459 appearances over the course of 11 seasons in the process, the ninth most of any player in the club's history,

Scouting Orlando City SC

Orlando will enter the fixture after defeating the Houston Dynamo in penalties after a 1-1 draw on July 21 and then earning a 2-3 win over LIGA MX team Santos Laguna.

Forward Duncan McGuire will be a player to look out for on Wednesday night after netting twice in the team's group stage games.

What's Next?

Inter Miami can punch its ticket to the Round of 16 of the 2023 Leagues Cup and eliminate Orlando City with a win. If Inter Miami advances to the next round, it will face the winner of the Round of 32 match between FC Dallas and LIGA MX side Mazatlán F.C., which will also take place on Wednesday, August 2.
