PSG vs Inter Miami Live Stream – A Guide About Paris Saint-Germain's Next Club World Cup Match
Paris Saint-Germain is in the Round of 16 of the FIFA Club World Cup and will go up against Lionel Messi and Inter Miami in the knockout stage. Paris Saint-Germain topped Group B in the FIFA Club World Cup and will now play Inter Miami in the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. The Round of 16 matchup is highly anticipated as Lionel Messi leads the Major League Soccer side against his former club. Advertisement Watch PSG vs Inter Miami for FREE with DAZN on any device! Paris Saint-Germain defeated Atlético Madrid and Seattle Sounders in the group stage to set up this intriguing matchup with Inter Miami. PSG are not invincible, however, as they also lost 1-0 to Botafogo in the group stage. Inter Miami finished second in their group but did manage to defeat Porto and draw against Palmeiras. A win for Inter Miami would easily be one of the biggest in club history and for PSG, an embarrassment coming off their UEFA Champions League title run. How to Watch PSG vs Inter MiamiAll eyes will be on this matchup between PSG and Inter Miami. PSG's manager, Luis Enrique, has named a high-quality starting lineup with Gianluigi Donnarumma in goal, Achraf Hakimi and Nuno Mendes at full-back, Willian Pacho and Marquinhos at center-back, Fabian Ruiz, João Neves, and Vitinha in midfield, and up front, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Désiré Doué, and Bradley Barcola. Ousmane Dembélé, the frontrunner for the Ballon d'Or, starts on the bench. Advertisement For those who couldn't make it to Atlanta for the match, the best way to watch PSG at the Club World Cup is DAZN. The quality of the coverage has been world-class, and you won't want to miss a second of the action. Once you're streaming with DAZN, you'll be able to not only watch PSG vs. Inter Miami, but all of the knockout stage matches of the Club World Cup. How Motivated Will Messi Be Against PSG? Messi played two seasons at PSG, and despite winning domestic trophies, Les Parisiens failed to get past the Round of 16 of the Champions League with arguably the best player of all time. Since leaving PSG, Messi has stated that he wasn't happy in the French capital, which could explain the lackluster results in the Champions League. There was also a situation where Messi skipped a training session and was forced to post an apology video. There could be some resentment from Messi and PSG heading into this matchup, which only adds to the excitement leading up to kickoff.

BetMGM Bonus Code WIREBG150: Grab $150 Bonus for Skubal, Tigers vs Twins on Sunday Night
The Detroit Tigers haven't hosted a Sunday Night Baseball game since 2017, but Tarik Skubal gets the ESPN spotlight tonight when the Tigers face the Minnesota Twins. If you want to wager on baseball, soccer, golf or anything else happening today, then you need to check out the BetMGM bonus code WIREBG150 that gives you $150 in bonus bets when you win a $10 first bet. Here's the WIREBG150 offer: If you're a new bettor in Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania or West Virginia, then you'll collect three $50 bonus bets (plus your winnings) when you win your $10 first bet. New bettors in the other states BetMGM operates can use the BetMGM bonus code SBWIRE to clinch a protected first bet up to $1,500. The Tigers are one of the feel-good stories of this season. Instead of regressing after last year's run to the AL divisional playoffs, they put together the best first-half record in baseball. That's why ESPN flexed this game into the Sunday Night Baseball slot. As an added bonus, the world gets to focus on Skubal — who's merely the best pitcher in the game. Detroit has won 10 of Skubal's last 11 starters — and the only loss was a 1-0 defeat to the Kansas City Royals after Skubal threw seven shutout innings. If you're looking for other hot pitchers today, how about Atlanta's Spencer Strider before the Braves host the Philadelphia Phillies? He has struck out 29 in his last 17 innings, so check the BetMGM app — one of the nation's top sports betting apps — to check his over-under for strikeouts. Before you do anything, you have to sign up for one of the biggest sportsbook promos out there. Hit the nearest BET NOW button and then type in either the BetMGM bonus code WIREBG150 or the BetMGM bonus code SBWIRE to activate your welcome offer. BetMGM Bonus Code Promos: Get $150 in Bonus Bets or $1500 First-Bet Offer The United States Men's National Team has a great chance to win the CONCACAF Gold Cup — but the path to a championship starts with a win over Costa Rica in tonight's quarterfinal at Minneapolis. The USMNT is a solid favorite but double-check BetMGM's soccer tab to find the latest odds on this match and everything else happening in the Gold Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup. Today's Round of 16 action in the Club World Cup features a doozy between Paris Saint-Germain and Lionel Messi's Inter Miami squad. Can the world's most celebrated player take down the odds-on favorite to win it all? Don't forget the PGA Tour and NASCAR keep rolling today. The Rocket Classic doesn't attract a ton of huge names to Detroit Golf Club, but you're rarely going to find a more hotly contested tournament. Last year, four golfers came up just one stroke shy of champ Cam Davis. NASCAR, meanwhile, enjoys some night race at Atlanta Speedway. If you check the latest racing odds, you're likely to see Ryan Blaney as the favorite. But don't sleep on Chase Briscoe. He won last week at Pocono and won the pole three straight weeks recently. In a similar vein, don't sleep on BetMGM's strong welcome offers. Remember, new bettors in Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and West Viriginia cite the BetMGM bonus code WIREBG150 to get $150 in bonus bets for winning a $10 first bet. Everyone else uses the BetMGM bonus code SBWIRE to guarantee themselves a protected first bet up to $1,500. How to Sign Up for the BetMGM Bonus Code Offer If you're 21 or older (in most states) and in one of the more than 20 states where BetMGM operates, you can sign up for a new account with a BetMGM bonus code in a matter of minutes. Here's how: If you're signed up for the $1,500 BetMGM bonus code SBWIRE, place your first bet on any of today's matchups (or any other set of odds), and if it settles as a loss, you'll get bonus bets back. For wagers of $50 and up, the refund comes as five equal bonus bets, while smaller wagers get a single matching credit. With the BetMGM bonus code WIREBG150, you can wager on any set of odds, and if it comes back as a win, you get your winnings plus three $50 bet credits. After signing up for your BetMGM bonus code offer, place your qualifying bet within seven days. You'll have a seven-day window from when bonus bets are deposited to use them or they will expire.
