Toronto FC (4-8-7) at Inter Miami CF (11-5-3) — Match Preview
Toronto FC (4-8-7) travel to Nu Stadium to face Inter Miami CF (11-5-3) on August 22, 2026. The gap in the table is wide, with Inter Miami sitting second in MLS while Toronto FC sits 12th, and the season-long form on both sides reflects it. Dániel Sallói has carried Toronto FC’s attack with 4 goals and 3 assists across 19 appearances, the most complete scoring threat on a roster that has struggled to find consistency in front of goal. On the home side, Lionel Messi has been even more decisive, producing 12 goals and 9 assists across just 16 appearances for Inter Miami CF.
Rodrigo De Paul’s distribution from midfield, which has produced 8 assists in 15 appearances, gives Miami another way to create chances beyond its front two of Messi and Luis Suárez, who has added 10 goals of his own in 15 appearances. Alonso Coello has chipped in 3 assists across 19 appearances for Toronto FC, but the visitors will need more than one reliable outlet to keep pace with a Miami side built around one of the league’s most productive attacks.

Players to Watch: Toronto FC vs. Inter Miami CF
Toronto FC
Dániel Sallói — F. Sallói leads Toronto FC’s attack with 4 goals and 3 assists across 19 appearances this season, the rare Toronto forward who has been productive at both ends of the final third. His combination of scoring and creating gives Toronto FC its most reliable source of chances heading into a road trip against a stingier opponent.
Alonso Coello — M. Coello has quietly become Toronto FC’s most involved creator, setting up teammates for 3 assists across 19 appearances from midfield. His distribution out of the middle of the park will need to hold up against an Inter Miami CF side that sits second in MLS overall.
Josh Sargent — F. His 3 goals have come in just 12 appearances, giving Toronto FC a more efficient scoring option to pair alongside Sallói up front. Getting him consistent service will matter against a Miami side that sits second in MLS overall this season.
Inter Miami CF
Lionel Messi — F. Messi paces Inter Miami CF’s attack with 12 goals and 9 assists across just 16 appearances, production that makes him the most closely marked player on the field. His combination of finishing and vision means Toronto FC cannot afford to focus solely on stopping the pass or the shot, since he consistently produces both.
Rodrigo De Paul — M. De Paul supplies the service from midfield, setting up 8 assists across 15 appearances for a Miami attack loaded with finishers. His distribution links Inter Miami CF’s back line to its front three and keeps the ball moving toward Messi and Suárez in dangerous areas.
Luis Suárez — F. Suárez lines up as a second scoring threat alongside Messi, adding 10 goals of his own across 15 appearances. The pairing leaves Toronto FC with little margin for error defensively, since neither forward can be marked out of a match without exposing the other.
