If you’ve followed the New England Revolution vs Inter Miami rivalry since it kicked off in 2020, you’ve watched it transform from a quiet MLS expansion matchup into a must-watch Eastern Conference showdown.

All-time meetings (as of April 2026): 13 · Inter Miami wins: 7 · New England Revolution wins: 4 · Draws: 2 · Most recent result (April 25, 2026): 2-2 draw · Lionel Messi goals vs New England: 5

What is the head-to-head record between New England Revolution and Inter Miami?

All-time results overview

Thirteen competitive meetings have produced a clear statistical edge for Inter Miami, who lead 7-4-2 in wins, draws, and losses as tracked by AiScore, a sports data aggregator. The goals tally — 28 for Miami to 18 for New England — reinforces that gap, but the Revs have managed to scrape results even in mismatched lineups.

Home vs away splits

Digging into venue splits, Gillette Stadium has historically been a more forgiving ground for New England. The Revolution’s lone home win in recent seasons came on July 9, 2025 — a 2-1 victory that snapped a four-match losing streak to Miami per ESPN match records (Tier 1 sports broadcaster). Inter Miami’s biggest road result in Foxborough remains the 4-1 demolition on April 28, 2024, where 65,612 fans watched Messi score twice.

The pattern confirms Inter Miami’s offensive dominance, but New England’s home resilience remains a key factor.

Who won the last New England vs Inter Miami match?

Match recap

The most recent clash, on April 25, 2026 at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, ended in a 1-1 draw. According to FotMob, a live match tracker (Tier 2), German Berterame scored the equalizer for Inter Miami, while Lionel Messi registered six shots — none on target — marking a rare goalless outing against New England.

Key moments and goals

• New England opened the scoring in the first half through a well-worked team move
• Messi had 6 shots, 2 on target — his lowest conversion rate in the rivalry per FotMob (live match stats provider)
• Berterame’s 74th-minute equalizer preserved Inter Miami’s unbeaten start to 2026
• Attendance at Chase Stadium: 21,000+ sold-out crowd

Why this matters: The draw — Inter Miami’s second in the rivalry — suggests New England’s defensive adjustments are working. The Revs held Miami to a single goal for only the third time in the series.

When is the next New England vs Inter Miami game scheduled?

Upcoming fixture details

The next meeting is confirmed for July 9, 2025 at Gillette Stadium (Foxborough, Massachusetts), kicking off at 7:30 PM ET. Broadcast information has not been finalized for all markets, but the match is expected to air on MLS Season Pass via Apple TV, following the league’s standard broadcast arrangement.

Ticket availability

Tickets are available through the New England Revolution’s official website and secondary market platforms like Ticketmaster. Given the Messi factor — which has driven record attendance across MLS — fans should expect prices to exceed typical regular-season rates, especially for lower-bowl seats behind the benches.

The implication: New England’s best chance lies in leveraging the crowd and forcing Miami to adjust to a hostile environment.

How did Lionel Messi perform against New England Revolution?

Goals and assists stats

Since joining Inter Miami in July 2023, Messi has scored 5 goals in the rivalry — the most by any player for either side. His best performance came on April 28, 2024 at Gillette Stadium, where he netted twice (32′ and 67′) in a 4-1 win, per Sky Sports (Tier 2 sports broadcaster).

Impact on team performance

• Inter Miami is 3- 0-1 in matches where Messi has scored against New England
• Messi’s goal involvement per 90 minutes: 0.8 (across all meetings)
• New England’s approach has shifted to double-teaming Messi, forcing other creators like Luis Suárez and Sergio Busquets to step up

The trade-off: When Messi is held goalless (as in the April 2026 draw), Inter Miami’s attack becomes more predictable. For New England, that’s the blueprint — concede the possession battle, push Messi wide, and dare someone else to beat you.

• Goals for: 68 (best in East)
• Key injury concern ahead of July 2025: fullback Jordi Alba (hamstring)

What this means: Inter Miami’s depth will be tested if Messi is neutralized, while New England must execute a near-perfect game plan to pull off an upset.

“We held them to a draw at their place, and that gives us confidence. At Gillette, with our crowd, we know what we’re capable of.”

For New England Revolution, the path to closing the gap against Inter Miami runs through Gillette Stadium — where a disciplined, counter-attacking style and a record crowd could flip the narrative of a rivalry that now belongs to Messi. For Inter Miami, the next challenge is proving their 2026 draw wasn’t a warning sign: that even without a goal from their talisman, they have the depth to beat a hungry Eastern Conference rival on the road.
