Atlanta United vs. Inter Miami live stream: MLS Cup Playoffs prediction, TV channel, how to watch online, time

The MLS Cup playoffs roll on and with another victory, Inter Miami can seal progression to the next round with a victory. It may not be a cut and dry scenario though, as in Miami's last visit to Atlanta, they drew 2-2. The Five Stripes did push Miami in the first match of the series, drawing level before eventually succumbing to a strike from Jordi Alba. It's a reminder that you always have to be prepared to face the Herons, as with one kick, everything can change. And that kick doesn't even always come from Lionel Messi.

Storylines

Atlanta United: There are tough lineup decisions for head coach Rob Valentino to make.  His starting lineup wasn't effective against the Herons in the opening match of the series, but after withdrawing Brooks Lennon, Atlanta found their way. Lennon has been a strong force in the team, but in a win or go home tie, decisions like that can be critical. Atlanta can't afford to leave anything up to chance which is why Valentino will need to get the XI right from the start.

Atlanta United predicted lineup: Brad Guzan, Pedro Amador, Derrick Williams, Stian Gregersen, Luis Abram, Xande Silva, Tristan Muyumba, Bartosz Slisz, Saba Lobzhanidze, Aleksey Miranchuk, Jamal Thiare

Inter Miami: Coming in as favorites, Miami just need to continue to do what they've done so far to win the Supporters' Shield and become favorites in the MLS Cup playoffs. Through Messi all things are possible, but these Herons have so many ways to hurt their opponents that it's an onslaught of pressure. If given a chance, they'll take care of the Game.

Inter Miami predicted lineup: Drake Callender, Jordi Alba, Hector Martinez, Tomas AvilesMarcelo Weigandt, Yannick Bright, Sergio Busquets, Federico Redondo, Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Diego Gomez

Prediction

Miami will look to start fast to end this tie early ensuring that they progress to the next round of the playoffs with ease. Pick: Atlanta United 1, Inter Miami 3
