Preview: Inter Miami CF vs New England
Inter Miami CF will host the New England Revolution in their last game of the regular MLS season. With a win, the Herons can break the MLS points record currently held by their opponents. Both teams have something to play for and a fascinating game awaits us.
The Herons have already clinched the 2024 Supporters’ Shield and are huge favourites to win the MLS Cup as well. They will start their MLS Cup playoffs next week and a win will certainly boost their confidence.
New England Revolution on the other hand missed out the knockout phase of Major League Soccer as they are currently sitting on the 14th spot in the Eastern Conference, nine points behind the playoff spot. The club lost five out of their last seven games and have conceded 68 goals in the league season. In his first full season with the Revs, Caleb Porter has faced nothing but disappointment as this is one of the worst seasons in the club’s entire history.
The rise of Inter Miami and the fall of the New England Revolution has been one of the major stories of MLS this season. Inter went from finishing 14th to winning the Supporters’ Shield whereas the Revs have dropped down nine spots on the table compared to last season.

Players to Watch: Inter Miami CF vs New England
Lionel Messi (Inter Miami CF)
After battling with injuries the entire season, Lionel Messi seems to be back to full fitness. He is coming into this game after bagging a hat-trick against Bolivia in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. He has been instrumental to the success of Inter Miami as he has scored 17 goals for the herons so far this season.
Aljaž Ivačič (New England Revolution)
The Revs need their goalkeeper to give an incredible performance if they want to get a positive result against Inter Miami away from home. Defensively New England Revolution have been one of the worst sides in MLS and all eyes will be on Aljaž Ivačič to rescue his team. The goalkeeper is averaging four saves per game and will look to replicate his excellent form against the hosts.
