Storylines

CF Montreal: On short rest after facing Force in the Canadian Championship quarterfinals on Tuesday, Montreal are now winless in their last four games. They did beat Inter Miami on March 10 but have since won just one of eight games.That win over the Herons did not feature Lionel Messi, so it's safe to expect this one to go differently. Dealing with a lack of defensive cohesion, they'll need a top performance to get all three points.

Inter Miami: Inter have gotten a big boost with the return of Jordi Alba, who trained on May 8 and looks nearly recovered from injury. A crucial part of the side because of his ability on both ends of the pitch, he's best impact may be defensive as the team has had no issues putting the ball away. But a player as smart as he is, with his awareness and cohesion with his former Barcelona teammates, should help the team generate more possession and have less to worry about at the back.
