What you need to know about Cincinnati
The home team sits atop the MLS Eastern Conference standings and would like to get back to league play after an uneven run in tournaments. Last Sunday's match against Columbus was the first time Cincinnati have been clean-sheeted since June, so they will try to bounce back.
Cincinnati haven't been keeping their opponents off the scoresheet either. In fact, they haven't recorded a clean sheet since a 3-0 win over Toronto FC on June 21. This could spell trouble against an Inter team that has scored in bunches. Stream the match here.
What you need to know about Miami
Before Messi joined Inter Miami this summer, the team was 5-3-14 through 22 MLS matches. They are now undefeated in seven straight matches since he joined the team, including last week's League Cup final.
Messi has scored at least one goal in every match since joining Inter Miami in July. He is already Inter Miami's third all-time leading goal scorer through just seven games and is showing no signs of slowing down. Stream the match here.

SportsLine soccer expert Brandt Sutton's best bet for this matchup is Over 3.5 goals at +122 odds. "These two teams have combined to score four or more goals in four of their last six head-to-head meetings," Sutton told SportsLine. "Backing Over 3.5 goals in a match isn't something I do every day, but given the recent history between these two teams, I think we could see a high-scoring affair."
