The New York Red Bulls are set to face off against Inter Miami CF on Saturday night in a must-see soccer showdown.

The two sides are meeting for the second time this season, following New York’s 4-0 victory in March, where Lewis Morgan scored a hat trick and Dante Vanzeir added four assists. Both Morgan and Vanzeir get the nod to start in Round 2.

Morgan scored his seventh goal of the season in New York’s 1-1 draw against Vancouver Whitecaps on April 27. Morgan’s seven goals leads the club and ranks tied for fourth in MLS.

Emil Forsberg will captain the side after missing the first matchup due to International Duty. Frankie Amaya, Wiki Carmona and Daniel Edelman will all be on the pitch for the opening whistle.

The Red Bulls have posted a 3-1-0 mark in away matches against Inter Miami CF, including a 1-0 win last season. New York have earned a result in nine of their last 10 MLS regular season road matches.

New York’s defense will be made up of John Tolkin, Sean Nealis, Andrés Reyes and Kyle Duncan. Carlos Coronel starts in goal for the Red Bulls.

Off the bench, Head Coach Sandro Schwarz will have Julian Hall, Elias Manoel, Cameron Harper, Dennis Gjengaar, Ronald Donkor, Dylan Nealis and Aidan O’Connor available off the bench. Ryan Meara will be the backup goalkeeper.

Noah Eile is suspended due to a red card in the previous match, while Cory Burke, Roald Mitchell, Serge Ngoma and Peter Stroud miss the match due to injuries.
