Notes:
- Inter Miami CF (5W-13L-2D, 17 points) is set to close-out its two-match tonight with its visit to D.C. United (8W-9L-5D, 29 points). Kick off at Audi Field is set for 7:30 p.m. ET.
- Inter Miami enters the game after two consecutive draws playing at home, most recently drawing 2-2 against Austin FC.
- Midfielder Benjamin Cremaschi and forwards Leonardo Campana and Josef Martínez have been named to the MLS Team of the Matchday for Matchday 23 of the 2023 regular season. The trio secured their spots on the team after their influential performances in the 2-2 draw against the Columbus Crew at DRV PNK Stadium on Tuesday, July 4.
- Tonight's meeting will be the second and final one between the two sides this 2023 regular season. Last time out, D.C. United won 1-2 at DRV PNK Stadium when the teams clashed in June.
- Forward Josef Martínez returns to the starting XI and will wear the captain’s armband tonight after a historic performance against Columbus on Tuesday night. The Venezuelan striker not only scored an acrobatic scissor kick screamer to tie the match in its final moments, as the goal brought him level with Dwayne De Rosario for the ninth-most goals in MLS history and brought his MLS regular season tally up to 104. Martínez currently is the team's top scorer this season with six goals to his name.
- Inter Miami signed defender Israel Boatwright and midfielder Lawson Sunderland on short-term agreements from the Club’s MLS NEXT Pro team, Inter Miami CF II, and both players will start the matchup on the bench.
- The Washington, D.C.- based side hosts Inter Miami after most recently earning a 0-1 win on the road against FC Dallas. So far in the 2023 MLS regular season, D.C. United have registered eight wins, nine losses and five draws for a total of 29 points and sit eighth in the Eastern Conference Standings. Belgian striker Christian Benteke has been the team's leader up to this point this season, registering eight goals and three assists.
