Inter Miami return to action this weekend to face off against Chicago Fire, looking to pick up three more points.

The Herons were victorious on their home turf last weekend against reigning Supporters‘ Shield champions FC Cincinnati 2-0. Luis Suarez bagged a brace in the opening 10 minutes of the match to seal all three points for Miami, who are in first place in the Supporters‘ Shield standings with 56 points.

However, Miami defense Tomas ‚Toto‘ Aviles was shown a second yellow card and was sent off in the win, meaning he will serve a one-match suspension and miss the clash vs Chicago. Miami boss Gerardo ‚Tata‘ Martino has switched to a 3-4-3 setup to provide more stability at the back with Sergio Busquets taking on the central center-back role.

Superstar Lionel Messi has returned to training from his brutal ankle injury suffered in the Copa America final, but his status for the match remains up in the air.

Assuming Martino sticks with the 3-4-3 formation on the road, here’s how Miami could lineup vs the Fire.

---

GK: Drake Callender – The veteran goalkeeper kept a rare clean sheet last time out and will hope to do so once again against a Chicago attack that’s scored just 32 goals this season.

CB: Serhiy Kryvtsov – Kryvtsov makes a returns to the backline after Aviles‘ suspension.

CB: Sergio Busquets – Busquets continues his run in the center of defense due to the shortage of available center-backs in Miami’s squad.

CB: Hector Martinez – The left-footed defender keeps his place on the left of the back three, looking to build off a solid performance vs Cincinnati.

RWB: Marcelo Weigandt – Weigandt slots in at right-back after an impressive showing in which he registered an assist last weekend.

CM: Yannick Bright – The 22-year-old has become an unsung hero in the Miami midfield, consistently putting in shifts while also continuing his development in his first season with the team.

CM: Federico Redondo – Redondo has improved in the middle of the park since his arrival in February, becoming a key cog in Martino’s system.

LWB: Jordi Alba – The veteran full-back will be eager to add his eighth assist in MLS action with his former Barcelona teammate Suarez up front and center.

RW: Matias Rojas – Rojas has been in excellent form in recent matches for Miami, managing six goal involvements in his last six appearances in all competitions.

ST: Luis Suarez – El Pistolero leads the line once again as his 14 goals are just three shy of leading all players in MLS.

LW: Diego Gomez – The versatile player gets the nod out on the left-wing and Martino can count on his relentless pressing to force Chicago into mistakes in their own half.
