Messi and Jordi Alba out for Miami

Both players did not make the trip to Orlando as it was confirmed they would not play. Robert Taylor and Facundo Farias handled the attacking workload with impressive performances.

Orlando look to continue good run of form

Orlando City sits in second place in their conference and before the loss against NYCFC earlier in the week, the team had not lost since playing Inter Miami in early August in the Leagues Cup. With no Messi or Jordi Alba, Orlando will look to regain their bragging rights in the state and give Miami another bump in their road to the playoffs.
