2 Club Necaxa players Inter Miami must shut down to get the win at Chase Stadium

Inter Miami is a few hours away from their match against Club Necaxa for the second game of the Leagues Cup. Javier Mascherano needs to think carefully about his starting formation, as the Herons have many issues to address.

The clash against Atlas left many questions about Weigandt and Lujan's defensive solidity. Rodrigo De Paul and Busquets need to pay attention in the midfield.

The Mexican team's playing idea is to control the ball first. With the arrival of Fernando Gago, Club Necaxa entered a transition period, and the Heron needs to benefit from this.

Here are two players Inter Miami must control: the three most influential players of Necaxa.

Agustín Palavecino

The former River Plate has become the central piece of Gago's scheme. Palavecino controls the pace of his team with forward passes, but also by stopping and playing between the center-backs.

He is a classic box-to-box midfielder. When his teammates are attacking, he joins the offense. Yet, he flips the switch easily and turns into a defensive midfielder, helping his team regain the ball.

Despite his tactical features, Agustin Palavecino has taken over as leader for Necaxa. He helped with the team's organization on defense and finding his teammates in the offense.

Díber Cambindo

Not the most tactically gifted player, but his physical presence in the box is crucial for the attack. He will be a problem for Lujan and Falcón, as they are not used to playing big and strong strikers.

Fernando Gago uses Cambindo as a pivot to group down defenders and create space outside. With a decent first touch, the Colombian striker adds to the idea that the Argentine coach looks for.

Without being a goalscorer, Cambindo is crucial for the high pressure they propose. The Colombian helps by forcing the centre-back to go forward and lose the ball.
