Inter Miami face elimination from the Concacaf Champions League quarterfinals in Wednesday's second leg, which offers a chance to reverse course after losing the first leg to LAFC last week. The good news for Inter Miami is that the margin of defeat in Los Angeles was a narrow one – LAFC notched a 1-0 win last week thanks to a goal from Nathan Ordaz in the 57th minute.

On the brink of elimination in the Concacaf Champions Cup, Inter Miami will hope to rely on Lionel Messi to lead the Herons to a comeback against LAFC.
