Top games to watch on matchday 18 in Major League Soccer
Inter Miami vs St. Louis: After a shock loss to Atlanta United on Wednesday that ended their ten game unbeaten streak, Inter Miami will naturally look to rebound when they host St. Louis this weekend. Fortunately perhaps for the Herons, Cincinnati, who sit just one point back, also slipped up in their midweek tie with Nashville and thus were not able to leap-frog Inter Miami into top spot in the Eastern Conference. Inter Miami's upcoming visitors St. Louis come into this match having lost three on the trot, but certainly it doesn't mean the visiting side are not capable of pulling off another upset this weekend.

Los Angeles vs Dallas: Los Angeles have been in great form lately, which has seen them steadily climb up the table in the Western Conference. The Black and Gold will come into their upcoming home game against Dallas on a six match winning streak across all comps (three in MLS) and notably, have not conceded a goal since May 8th when they beat lower-tier side Las Vegas Lights 3-1 in the US Open Cup. As such, it will be very interesting to see if they can continue in the same vein when they take on a Dallas side yet to really kick into gear this season.

Atlanta United vs Charlotte: No one expected Atlanta United to travel to Inter Miami's home ground and win, but that's exactly what they did midweek. Now, they will aim to use that as a springboard when Charlotte come to town on Sunday. Currently, Atlanta still find themselves in the bottom half of the table, but may take some respite in the fact that their upcoming visitors have been in a mini-funk lately as they have failed to win their last three games in MLS.
