Inter Miami CF

Current form
Inter Miami failed to achieve its main goal in 2024. Yes, they managed to become the best team in the regular MLS championship, but the visitors failed in the playoffs. In the first stage, the team lost in three matches to Atlanta United. Few expected such an outcome, after all, the team from Florida has a rather stellar roster: the team play is determined by such players as Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets, Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi. After an unsuccessful season, another former Barcelona player, Javier Mascherano, became the head coach of the team. In the first friendly match, Inter Miami met with Mexican America. Regular time ended with a score of 2:2, and in the penalty shootout, the Inter players were more accurate.

The visitors have no problems with their squad ahead of the friendly match.

1.55Tip and bets
In a friendly match, the opponents have no reason to sit back in defense. Both teams have serious attacking potential, which they will try to reveal in a training sparring. The footballers are full of energy and will do everything to prove themselves in attack. We suggest betting on the total over.
Our prediction is total over 2.5 goals for 1.65
Bet on the outcome
The guests have some world football stars in their lineup, who are still capable of much, although the peak of their careers has already passed. Last season, the Miami club took first place in its regular season conference and plans to fight for the final title in 2025. Inter Miami is much better than its opponent in terms of the level of football players, so we believe that the victory will go to the team from the USA.
Our prediction is Inter Miami win at 2.35
Bet on the first half
We don't expect the opponents to go forward in force immediately after the starting whistle. It will obviously take time to get to know each other. In this scenario, a draw at the end of the first half is likely.
Our prediction is a draw in the first half at 2.35
