This will not yet be Lionel Messi’s debut game. The technical staff hopes to have the Argentine star by the second week of July. Spaniard Sérgio Busquets is also in the same situation: trying to know the club, the country, and the city until he is fully adapted to Inter.
Playing again at home, Inter Miami will receive Columbus Crew this Tuesday, seeking to win a game after so many defeats and difficulties. The challenge will be immense. The visitors are in fourth place in the Western Conference, while the Florida team is in last place.
Without the presence of their recent signings, Inter will have to play an almost perfect game to beat this difficult opponent, who has won 4 of their last 5 games.
When:
Tuesday, July 4th – 07:30 pm ET at DRV PNK Stadium
Moneyline odds:
Inter Miami +184
Columbus +136
Draw offs:
+265
Where Can I Watch?
Why Bet on Inter Miami?
Faced with the great difficulty in winning matches, Inter Miami fans are increasingly anxious to see Messi and Busquets on the pitch. The 1-1 draw against Austin, in the last round, was still not what the fans expected, but it served as an encouragement after so many bad results. The game was fairly balanced, having ended goalless in the first half. Striker Josef Martínez opened the scoring for Inter at the beginning of the second half, but the team’s defensive instability, noticeable from the first rounds, allowed the opponent to tie after a few minutes.
The draw, however, served to break the losing streak that the team was experiencing. With attention from the media, fans, and opponents, the pressure on the athletes starts to increase. No one will want to hand over a losing team to Lionel Messi, one of the greatest players in football history. Miami may improve its performance in the next matches until the debut day of the former Barcelona players.
Why Bet on Columbus Crew?
Columbus Crew won 4 of the last 5 matches they played and that statistic alone is enough to demonstrate their favoritism in this game. With 40 goals scored in 20 games, it has the most powerful attack in the entire MLS (let’s remember that they put 6 pass to the absolute leaders of FC Cincinnati in the early season).
Lucas Zelarayán and Christian Giménez scored 15 goals together in this edition of the MLS, and are the Crew’s top scorers this season. In the last round, against Nashville, Ramirez scored one of the goals and reached his seventh.
Columbus has not won their last three games away from home, but their recent results encourage any fan: 4 wins and 1 draw in their last five MLS games.
Final Betting Analysis: Inter Miami vs. Columbus Crew
Inter Miami and Columbus have met 7 times in recent years. This history of clashes demonstrates balance but with a small advantage for Inter Miami. The Florida team won three, drew two, and lost twice to their opponent.
However, the shadow of the two Barcelona legends coming seems to be too long. Their squad at this stage does not seem strong enough to secure victory against such a powerful opponent, who has already scored 40 goals in the current season. Due to these reasons, we believe in Columbus’s victory.
If you put $100 into Columbus Crew’s win, you could get $136 back for a total payout of $236.
