With the FIFA International Window taking place this weekend, many MLS teams will not be able to play at full strength as key players will be away on duty with their respective national teams.
MLS super club Inter Miami CF will be without Lionel Messi, who will miss the friendly against Argentina in March due to a hamstring injury. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Galaxy, once an MLS superclub, are undergoing something of a resurgence. The Galaxy are undefeated through their first four games and will visit Sporting Kansas City on Saturday. New York City FC has their first win of the season and will visit last season's Supporters' Shield winners FC Cincinnati to see if last week's result is a sign of things to come or an anomaly. Must.

MLS Game of the Week: Sporting Kansas City vs. LA Galaxy
- Date and time: Saturday 8:30pm ET
- TV/Streaming Information: MLS season pass
SKC and Galaxy enter Saturday's Western Conference showdown undefeated…but both have just one win in four games. For the Galaxy, he's one of the most pleasant surprises of the early season. The innovative attack, featuring designated players Riqui Puig and Josef Panstill, was shocking. Forward Dejan Jovelic is tied for the league lead with four goals (tied with Atlanta United's Giorgos Jakmakis and Inter Miami's Luis Suarez). Kansas City has been stingy on defense, allowing just three points through four games.
And on weekends when MLS teams will be without players on international duty, SKC forward Arenis Vargas will be the only player from either of these two teams who will be unavailable for the game.
