Inter Miami will look to make it two wins in a row in the MLS when they travel to DC United on Saturday.
Javier Mascherano's team bounced back from a defeat to Orlando City with a convincing 3-1 victory over defending champions LA Galaxy. Miami continued their strong Leagues Cup run with a hard-fought 2-1 win over Mexican side Tigres.
