Expected lineup for the match between Inter Miami and St Louis City in round 18 of MLS at 6:30 a.m. on June 2. Updated lineup for Inter Miami vs St Louis City match.

Inter Miami can rely on Lionel Messi in the match against St. Louis City belongs to round 18 of MLS. La Pulga will temporarily stop playing for the pink shirt team because the striker will then return to the Argentina team to attend friendly matches before the 2024 Copa America.

The South Florida team just experienced a disappointing 1-3 loss at home against Atlanta United. Messi scored with a long shot but did not change the result, ending a 10-match unbeaten streak in MLS, although still leading the Eastern region table.

Messi will play his last match for Inter Miami before joining the team

To date, the Argentine star has appeared in 14 matches in MLS and Concacaf Champions Cup (13 starts), scored 13 goals and had 11 assists. On the contrary, he also missed 7 matches (due to injury or technical decision). If he plays, this will be the rare time Messi plays consecutive midweek and weekend matches.

In addition to Messi, other pillars of Inter Miami such as Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba still play. The only doubt lies in the attack when Robert Taylor and Matias Rojas will compete for the remaining spot.
