Head-to-Head History

DateResultNotable Moment
May 19, 2024Inter Miami 1–0 D.C.Suárez penalty winner

Inter Miami has won 3 of last 4 meetings

D.C. United has conceded 10 goals in last 4 vs. Miami

Miami’s attacking depth and form should overwhelm a D.C. side still searching for stability. Even without Messi, Suárez and Campana offer enough firepower to exploit defensive gaps.
