Inter Miami vs Palmeiras form
Not representing Europe, Porto, Inter Miami and Palmeiras are the teams occupying the top 2 positions and have a great chance of qualifying for the round of 16. Before the final match of Group A, both sides had 4 points but the samba team was on top thanks to a better goal difference.
The battle at Hard Rock, Miami will determine the top spot and decide who will advance.
With just a draw, the two American representatives will advance together as they are 3 points ahead of Porto and Al Ahly. This scenario is quite likely to happen because the balance of power on both sides of the battle line is quite balanced.
More importantly, Inter Miami and Palmeiras probably don't want to take risks that will cost them dearly. A solid defense is a top priority for both the home team and the visitors.
Inter Miami has the home field advantage and has more prominent faces. Although they are on the other side of their careers, Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba... are still becoming important links in coach Javier Mascherano's tactical scheme.
The surprising 2-1 victory over Porto in the second match partly demonstrated the importance of the veterans who used to play for Barcelona. In particular, Messi's classy free kick made a real difference, helping the Miami team pocket all 3 points.
The home team's morale is high. In their last 5 appearances, Inter Miami have been unbeaten, with 3 wins and 2 draws. However, Messi and his teammates cannot afford to be complacent or complacent because their South American opponents are even considered slightly better than them.
Inter Miami and Palmeiras are likely to advance together.
Without the presence of bright stars in the squad, Palmeiras' strength comes from the uniformity in all three lines. In particular, the defense system, under the direction of captain Gustavo Gomez, is doing its job very well. In the goal, veteran goalkeeper Weverton also deserves to become a reliable stopper.
After two matches, Palmeiras' defense still kept a clean sheet. In the context of only needing 1 point to maintain the top position and a ticket to the next round, the away team's backline has more reason to maintain concentration, thereby creating confidence for their teammates above.
