Messi and Inter Miami are preparing to enter the quarterfinals of the CONCACAF Champions League. They defeated Nashville FC in the previous round and their next opponent is Monterrey, a representative from Mexico. The first leg will take place at 7:00 a.m. on April 4 (Vietnam time).
Messi is trying to recover from his injury at the right time
Currently, Messi’s ability to play is still unknown. The Argentine superstar suffered a hamstring injury and had to miss about half a month. According to coach Tata Martino, Messi is very active in treatment to be able to return at the right time.
The pressure on the Argentine superstar’s shoulders is growing, especially after Inter Miami’s recent performances without number 10. They lost to New York RB and were held to a draw by New York City. Suarez, Busquets, Alba still play regularly but not enough to fill Messi’s position.
Even though he has turned 36 years old, the Argentine superstar is still highly appreciated. Not only the fans but also the bookmakers are the same. According to current statistics from bookmakers in the Americas, Inter Miami is the team with the highest chance of winning the CONCACAF Champions League with an odds of only 1:3.
Meanwhile, Messi and his teammates in the quarterfinals, Monterrey, have a ratio of 2 to 9. Two other traditionally rich Mexican teams, Pachua and Tigres UANL, have a ratio of 1 to 5 and 5 to 1, respectively. 1 to 6. The other two American representatives, Columbus Crew and New England Revolution, shared positions 6 and 7 with a ratio of 1 to 7 and 1 to 14. Herediano, the Costa Rican team, ranked last with a ratio of 1. eat 15.
Being the highest rated is sometimes not a good thing. Frankly speaking, Inter Miami is only strong when it has Messi. Therefore, the opponent will take extremely careful care of the Argentine superstar. And if M10 cannot play, president David Beckham’s team will hardly win.
