As Inter Miami look to maintain their position at the top of the Eastern Conference, it will be a tough road as they travel to Vancouver to face the Whitecaps without Lionel MessiLusi Suárez and Sergio Busquets. Although the trio are not injured, they will miss one away game before a critical midweek match against Atlanta. United. When managing his stars, Tata Martino has to do things like this during the season, but it creates problems when BC Place is expected to be sold out for the match.
In fact, Vancouver released a statement about the Miami stars’ absence due to a club-record attendance expected.
“While we have not received an official update on Lionel Messi’s availability, Luis Suarez, and Sergio Busquets for this weekend, we understand that they will not make this trip. Unfortunately, we have no control over who plays for our opponents and it was important for us to communicate this to our fans as quickly as possible.” said Axel Schuster, CEO of Whitecaps FC.
“We always want our best players to face our opponent’s best players, and facing players at the highest level was especially exciting for our team. We know there will be many disappointed fans as well. We remain committed to making this a special experience for everyone. It will still be an incredible atmosphere and a celebration of football for our city. We have incredible fans, we have a good team and Saturday’s game is a very important home game for us.”
The Whitecaps will provide food at 50% off and offer children under 18 a free meal combo, but when ticket prices rise due to fans hoping to see Messi, even food will not make up for the financial losses on some tickets.

Plots
Vancouver Whitecaps: Despite Miami’s lack of stars, there is still football to play. The Whitecaps are in a playoff position in the Western Conference, but hardly as they are average this season. Brian White He is in good form, scoring five goals and assisting two more, but more attacks need to step up to help him make the team work. Miami’s defense is vulnerable, so this is a winnable game.
InterMiami: When Messi and Suarez don’t play, all eyes are on Leonardo Campana and defense. With Benjamin Cremaschi Back in the fold, this is a deeper Inter Miami than at the start of the season, but they are also coming off the first stretch of the season without scoring a goal in two consecutive games. If this continues, it will raise concerns over whether they can maintain their momentum in the Supporters’ Shield.
Prediction
Supported by the home fans, the Whitecaps will secure a landmark victory this season behind Brian White. Choice: Vancouver Whitecaps 3, Inter Miami 1
