Inter Miami have outscored opponents 17-4 during the Audi 2025 MLS Cup Playoffs.

Lionel Messi has recorded a playoff-record 13 goal contributions (6g/7a), Tadeo Allende's eight playoff goals are a single postseason record, and Mateo Silvetti has 2g/3a since replacing Luis Suárez in the starting XI.

Spain and FC Barcelona legends Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets are playing their final professional match, having announced their planned retirements during the fall.

Vancouver Whitecaps FC

Vancouver hope to become the first MLS Cup champion to win on the road since New York City FC in 2021.

The Whitecaps are led by German star and Bayern Munich legend Thomas Müller, who joined the club in August. He's since produced 9g/4a in 12 games (all competitions) and helped them win the Canadian Championship.

USMNT midfielder Sebastian Berhalter and leading scorer Brian White could also leave their mark, while Ryan Gauld is a potential super-sub now that he's back healthy.
