Messi has played every minute of the Florida club's four competitive matches across MLS and the Champions Cup so far this season. With his team coming up against Canadian side Montreal just days after their midweek draw against Nashville, coach Tata Martino could opt to rest him. Herons head coach Martino said this week that he is worried about the 36-year-old suffering "significant wear and tear" amid their recent return to action. The captain has already scored four goals in as many games since the new season started in late February. Having won two and drawn one of their three MLS matches so far, Inter Miami will aim to continue their unbeaten start to the season when they host Montreal. Should Messi miss this weekend's clash, the Argentine will likely return to the fold for the second leg of their Champions Cup last-16 tie against Nashville next week.
