When Inter Miami plays Nashville SC at the DRV PNK Stadium on Wednesday night, they'll be trying to make it 10 victories in a row.

Although the hosts have been in excellent form since Lionel Messi's arrival, they are now sitting in 14th place in the Eastern Conference, while the guests are up in seventh.

With just 21 points from their first 23 games, Inter Miami is second-bottom in the Eastern Conference after a very sluggish start to the season, but they could yet make a late push for the postseason spots.

The Herons presently behind the ninth-placed Chicago Fire by 11 points, but they still have two games remaining, and their recent performance suggests they may be able to close the distance.

Gerardo Martino's team has been nothing short of remarkable since the arrival of Messi, winning nine straight games in a row across all competitions and making it to two finals while the MLS season was suspended.

Inter Miami first won the Leagues Cup after winning each of their games, defeating Nashville SC on penalties in the championship game. Since then, they have been to the US Open Cup final.

The Herons overcame a two-goal deficit to tie the game 3-3 in regulation time, then won on penalties to advance to the final against the Houston Dynamo at the end of September. This victory came against FC Cincinnati in the semi-final.

Martino's team will be concentrating on the MLS until then, and Messi is off to a great start in the league after scoring the second goal in a 2-0 victory over the New York Red Bulls in their most recent match.

Nashville, who defeated teams like FC Cincinnati, Club America, and Minnesota United when the MLS was suspended, will be eager to exact revenge for their loss in the Leagues Cup final earlier this month.

The Boys in Gold's league performance, though, leaves much to be desired. They have dropped six of their previous seven MLS contests, and they haven't had success away from home since early June.

Gary Smith's team is still in a strong position to finish in the top seven, despite a significant drop in form. They are now three points ahead of CF Montreal in third place, but they will need to pick up winning streaks shortly.

Nashville SC promptly reverted to form in the MLS in their most recent encounter, losing 4-0 away at Atlanta United in a game where they never looked like scoring and only managed one shot on goal. This came after Nashville SC impressed in the Leagues Cup.
