Match details:
DC United vs Inter Miami
Audi Field
September 19th, 02:30 IST
Preview:
Two out-of-form sides clash in MLS today as DC United host Inter Miami. Both sides have one win in their last four matches and are struggling for points this season.
DC United are at the rock bottom of the table and had their three-match unbeaten streak end last week. Wayne Rooneys side will remain 28th in the table regardless of the result today, but a win would see them cut the gap to a point on San Jose Earthquakes.
Inter Miami are 19th in the table with 39 points from 30 matches. They can jump to 15th with a win today but will need to do better than they have in the last few matches.
DC United drew 2-2 with Inter Miami earlier this season.
Suspension and injuries:
DC United: Brad Smith, Adrien Perez, Brendan Hines-Ike, and Rafael Romo are ruled out.
Inter Miami: Leonardo Campana, Robbie Robinson, Brek Shea and Ian Fray are ruled out.
Starting line-up:
DC United: Hamid, Najar, Alfaro, Birnbaum, Guediri, Morrison, Djeffal, Durkin, Fountas, Berry, Rodríguez
Inter Miami: Callender, Yedlin, Lowe, McVey, Gibbs, Mota, Gregore, Vassilev, Pozuelo, Lassiter, Higuaín
Top picks:
Gonzalo Higuain: The Argentine has been in decent form this season and should be a part of all teams today. He has scored 12 times this season and assisted thrice.
Taxiarchis Fountas: The one to back from the home side would be their forward, Taxiarchis Fountas. He has scored 11 times this season and is DC Uniteds top scorer.
Miguel Berry: The differential pick of the day can be Miguel Berry, who is yet to open his account for DC United. He will be leading their attack and looking to end his 12-match goalless streak.
Captaincy options:
- Gonzalo Higuain
- Taxiarchis Fountas
- Miguel Berry
