The high stakes of tonight’s Leagues Cup round of 16 between Columbus Crew and Inter Miami are sure to be even higher, considering the absence of Lionel Messi, who is out because of a right ankle injury that he suffered against their last MLS game against FC Dallas. Even though it was his first game with the team, the absence is a big one, laying the odds are for Columbus. The high-stakes game will take place at 7:30 pm, Lower.com Field, with two of the Eastern Conference’s top MLS teams clashing in the knockout game.

The reigning 2023 MLS Cup champions have been in prime form, gaining a strong advantage in the knockout stages. Columbus Crew advanced by beating Sporting Kansas City, 4-0, in a game that established the team as a contender in this year’s Leagues Cup. At the same time, Inter Miami faced a harder-fought battle, beating Toronto FC 4-3 after being reduced to ten men. Tonight’s winner will go on to play Tigres or New York City FC in the Leagues Cup quarterfinals. You can catch all the action on Apple TV, where it is being offered with an MLS Season Pass, both in English and Spanish.
