Inter Miami aims to break a four-game winless streak when they host Toronto FC in an MLS fixture. The team, managed by Guillermo Hoyos, has struggled recently, with their last positive result being a 2-2 draw against Philadelphia.

To secure a victory, Hoyos will rely on key players returning to the lineup. Rodrigo De Paul is available after serving a suspension, and Germán Berterame is cleared to play following a six-game absence due to a concussion sustained in a July 25 match against Montreal. The return of these players is expected to bolster the team's performance.

Lionel Messi is set to start in the match. The Argentine captain has been fined an unspecified amount for an incident involving a young player from Philadelphia. He is one of four Argentine players in the starting lineup, alongside Gonzalo Luján, Rodrigo De Paul, and Germán Berterame. The game will be broadcast on Apple+.
