Inter Miami are gearing up to host Tigres UANL in the 2025 Leagues Cup quarterfinal, with Chase Stadium set to witness a high-stakes showdown.
Javier Mascherano’s side enter the clash in good spirits after a strong performance against LA Galaxy in their last outing. The Herons looked sharp going forward and held their own defensively as well. Their earlier victory over Pumas UNAM sealed their place in the quarterfinals, adding to the team’s growing confidence.
Tigres UANL, meanwhile, come into this game on the back of a defeat to Club América, a result that could weigh on their form heading into the knockout stage. While they’ve managed to put up solid displays against MLS opposition recently, facing Lionel Messi and his in-form teammates will be a completely different challenge—one that could define their campaign.
Players to Watch
Lionel Messi (Inter Miami)
Lionel Messi may not have opened his account in the Leagues Cup 2025 just yet, but that hardly makes him any less dangerous. The Argentine missed Inter Miami’s last game in the competition with a minor knock, but he returned in style during their MLS clash against LA Galaxy—finding the back of the net once again. With his sharp form and unmatched ability to unlock defences, Messi will be the biggest threat Tigres will have to deal with on the night.
Ángel Correa (Tigres UANL)
On the other side, Tigres will be banking on Ángel Correa, who has been in outstanding form in the Leagues Cup. The Argentine forward has already netted four goals in just three appearances, proving to be a constant menace in the final third. At 30, his experience and eye for goal make him the go-to man for Tigres as they look to trouble Inter Miami’s defence and keep their semifinal hopes alive.
