What result do Inter Miami need to qualify in the CONCACAF Champions Cup tonight?

The Herons have it all to do against their Liga MX opponents if they want to keep their continental dream alive.

Inter Miami have an uphill task as they look to overturn a first leg deficit against CF Monterrey in the CONCACAF Champions Cup. They need to get out of the winless run that has seen them go without a victory in their previous four games.

Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez are set to lead the line for The Herons as they travel to Mexico for what is set to be one of the toughest games they will face all season.

The duo scored two each against Nashville in the previous round, while Robert
