The MLS is living the final stretch of the regular season and, therefore, is looking for qualified teams for the playoffs. Inter Miami, which has already assured its postseason berth, will expose its leadership against a needy opponent like the Chicago Fire.
The Fire is going through a bad streak, although it comes from a 2-2 draw away to New York City. Their goals came from Hugo Cuypers and Brian Gutiérrez.
Again without star player Lionel Messi, Inter beat Cincinnati 2-0, thanks to a brace by Uruguayan Luis Suárez in just 6 minutes.

Why Bet on the Chicago Fire?
Chicago Fire has been a disappointing team this season, as they were expected to compete for a higher position in the Eastern Conference, which has not happened.
Last matchday, they started losing 2-0 against New York City as visitors, but with goals from Hugo Cuypers and Brian Gutierrez, they were able to rescue a point.
Chicago has four matches without a win, considering its participation in the Leagues Cup, where it lost against Toluca and Sporting Kansas City.
Moreover, their last victory dates back to July 17, more than a month ago.There is no doubt that the situation of this team is very worrying.
Their position in the East is 13th, with 26 points. It is two points behind Atlanta United, which for now is qualifying for the Play-In against Toronto. The bad thing is that this team has only won six times in 26 opportunities.
In addition, their defense has been very poor, allowing 44 goals.
The injured player for this club is winger Chase Gasper, but they have winger Ariel Lassiter back.
Why Bet on Inter Miami?
Inter Miami has not disappointed with what was expected this semester. It is the leader in the Eastern Conference and is also dominant in the race for the Supporter’s Shield.
With Luis Suarez’s brace in just 6 minutes, the Florida team beat Cincinnati, a direct rival in the conference, 2-0.
In the absence of Lionel Messi due to the injury he suffered in the Copa America, the Uruguayan Suarez has been a great figure in this team. His 14 goals and five assists prove it.
Tata Martino’s team has 56 points and is currently the only team qualified for the MLS Playoffs. They have won their last three games, leaving behind a poor performance against Cincinnati, who beat them 6-1 on July 6. Also, they have seven victories in their most eight recent matches.
Their 58 goals make them the best offense in U.S. soccer.
Messi remains a question mark, but alongside him, Facundo Farias, Nicolas Freire, and Robbie Robinson remain injured. Tomás Avilés is suspended.
