Both Inter Miami and Porto have a point each heading into their second game of Group A at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Thursday night in the FIFA Club World Cup (CWC).
Indeed, both drew 0-0 in their first match against Al Ahly and Palmeiras respectively, and a win for either side will see them have one foot in the knockout stage. Equally, a defeat will make it very difficult for either team to qualify with just one game left.
Inter Miami are in better form overall heading into this one, as they are unbeaten in four matches in all competitions. Meanwhile, Porto are winless in two games, failing to score in either.
Both sides have never played each other before, but Porto will be favourites as they are higher ranked in terms of club rankings and play in a superior league.
Recent head-to-head: No prior meetings
As mentioned, these two teams have never had a competitive meeting against each other before.
Predicted lineups
Jordi Alba is back in light training after injury, but this match will still likely come too soon for the left-back. Noah Allen should play in his place.
Claudio Ramos should play in between the sticks in place of the injured Diogo Costa again, with Porto having no other injury concerns.
Inter Miami: Ustari, Fray, Aviles, Falcon, Allen, Redondo, Busquets, Cremaschi, Messi, Suarez, Allende.
Porto: Ramos, Perez, Pedro, Marcano, Mario, Varela, Eustaquio, Moura, Veiga, Mora, Omorodion.
