Atlanta United vs. Inter Miami: Time, TV, how to watch Messi play on Sunday Night Soccer

Lionel Messi and Inter Miami will take on Atlanta United on Apple TV’s Sunday Night Soccer at 7 tonight.

It will be a rematch from a first-round matchup of last year's MLS Cup playoffs, which saw Atlanta oust Inter Miami – the Supporters’ Shield winners that year.

Messi traveled with Inter Miami to Atlanta, but it’s unclear whether he will start or come off the bench during the Eastern Conference match at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Inter Miami coach Javier Mascherano said the club helped Messi avoid a possible injury with his three-game layoff to begin the month, before he returned to action last Thursday in the second half of their Concacaf Champions Cup game against Jamaica Cavalier FC.
