Inter Miami faces Philadelphia Union in MLS matchup

Inter Miami will face Philadelphia Union at Subaru Park in Chester for the 20th round of the 2026 MLS regular season. The match comes at a critical time for Inter Miami, who are looking to recover from a difficult week that included a 4-1 loss to Nashville SC and elimination from the Leagues Cup.

Led by Guillermo Hoyos, Inter Miami currently sits second in the Eastern Conference with 38 points, five points behind the leader. Lionel Messi, who missed a penalty and provided an assist in the recent loss to Nashville, remains a central figure as the team seeks to regain momentum and maintain its standing in the conference.

Philadelphia Union, under interim manager Ryan Richter, enters the match with improved form. Following an irregular start to the season, the team recently secured a 3-2 comeback victory against New York City FC. The Union are focused on the MLS playoffs and aim to use their home-field advantage to climb further up the Eastern Conference standings.
