"Inter Miami return to MLS action on Sunday when they travel to Bank of America Stadium to face an in-form Charlotte FC. The Herons are looking to bounce back from their Leagues Cup final disappointment, while the Crown are chasing a record-breaking ninth consecutive league win. Charlotte's Leagues Cup campaign ended in the group stage after defeats to Juarez and Guadalajara, but they have responded incredibly well."
"A 2-0 win over Monterrey closed out their tournament, and since then, Dean Smith's side have won four straight MLS matches, extending their winning streak in the competition to eight. That run has lifted them to third in the Eastern Conference, within sight of leaders Philadelphia Union. Last time out, Idan Toklomati struck late to secure a 2-1 win over New England Revolution, their fourth consecutive one-goal victory."
"Inter Miami, meanwhile, fell 3-0 to Seattle Sounders in the Leagues Cup final earlier this week, with Javier Mascherano's men also losing Luis Suarez to suspension following the post-match fallout. The Herons are sixth in the East with 46 points from 25 matches, but crucially they hold multiple games in hand on the teams above them. Defensive frailties remain an issue, though, with Miami conceding in nine straight matches and falling behind in five of their last seven."
Charlotte FC travel to Bank of America Stadium on Sunday holding an eight-game MLS winning streak after recovering from a poor Leagues Cup showing. Dean Smith's side beat Monterrey 2-0 and have recorded four consecutive MLS victories, moving to third in the Eastern Conference and closing on Philadelphia Union. Idan Toklomati scored a late winner in a 2-1 victory over New England, marking three straight matches with direct goal contributions. Smith is suspended for the match. Inter Miami lost the Leagues Cup final 3-0 to Seattle and saw Luis Suarez suspended, and defensive problems persist with goals conceded in nine consecutive matches.
