The preseason is coming to a close for Inter Miami with a rivalry match against Orlando City SC. While these are called friendlies, this Florida derby will be a friendly in name only. These teams play tight fixtures and as Inter Miami will kick off Concacaf Champions Cup play on Tuesday against Sporting Kansas City.

Inter Miami are set to face Orlando City in their final preseason friendly, and all eyes will be on their captain and top star, Lionel Messi. Inter Miami are back in action this Friday as they take on Orlando City at Raymond James Stadium in what will be their final preseason match.

Messi joined Inter Miami midway through the 2023 season in June, signing a contract that would keep him at the club until the end of the 2025 MLS season.
