Needing a win and some help to get into the knockout round of the MLS Is Back tournament, both Inter Miami CF and New York City FC look to extend their stay and not leave Orlando empty-handed when they meet Monday.
Both teams failed to win either of their first two group games, with Inter Miami (0-4-0) narrowly ahead on goal difference. The best four third-place teams advance to the 16-team knockout round, which means a victory is the only way either side would progress - if at all.
David Beckham's first-year club has dropped a pair of 2-1 decisions, the most recent against Philadelphia on Tuesday.
