Monterrey v Inter Miami Thursday at 04.30 CET

CONCACAF Champions Cup 2nd leg and we see if Lionel Messi still has his magic touch. His team need a win in New Leon as they trail 2-1 from the 1st leg.

Without Messi in Miami, Inter actually played a good game and were 1-0 up until some red card madness from David Ruiz. His temper ruining the game plan for Tata Martinez. Two late goals were unfair on The Herons. In the league Monterrey lost again as they rested players for this one. That’s two consecutive defeats which drops them to 3rd in Liga MX. Inter drew 2-2 at home to Colorado but saw Messi enter at halftime and score within 12 minutes.

Team news: Cesar Bustos is still out for home side but Jorge Rodriguez and Gerardo Arteaga are back after suspension. Robert Taylor is a doubt, Yannick Bright and David Ruiz miss this due to injury and suspension respectively.

Head-to-head statistics: 1 games – 1 wins Monterrey

Betting selection – Messi will be hounded here for sure for however long he manages to play for. If he gets the full 90 minutes I am sure Inter Miami will score, however I am almost certain Monterrey will score so Both score Yes at 1.65 or 13-20 bet365 is the bet.
