Why Bet on Inter Miami?
Inter Miami is one of the great candidates to be champion. In fact, based on what they have shown so far, they may be the team with the best chances to be champion, also due to their great players. They have just beaten Philadelphia Union 2-1 away, with goals by Julian Gressel and Leo Afonso.
Thanks to this victory, Inter has 38 points and is back to winning after two games without a victory, losing to Atlanta United and drawing 3-3 with St. Louis City. But these days Gerardo “Tata” Martino’s team has two important absentees, such as the Argentine Lionel Messi and the Uruguayan Luis Suarez, who were called up by their national teams for the Copa America.
That is why, for the moment, everything will depend on what Benjamin Cremaschi, Robert Taylor, Gressel, and the Ecuadorian Leonardo Campana can do. Miami has gone two games without a win at home and is now the third-best local team in the Eastern Conference with 18 points. However, in front of their home crowd, they have scored 26 goals, more than any other club in MLS.
In addition to Messi and Suárez absentees, Facundo FarÃas, Nicolás Freire, Diego Gómez, and Robbie Robinson are injured.
Why Bet on Columbus Crew?
One of the best teams in the United States by streak may be Columbus Crew, as it comes from several wins in a row and is getting closer and closer to the top of the Eastern Conference. The Crew has just beaten New York City 3-2 on the road, with goals from Christian Ramirez, Mohamed Farsi, and their star player, Colombian striker Juan Camilo “El Cucho” Hernandez.
Columbus is in sixth place with 27 points but has won its last four games. In addition, they have two and even three games less than the teams that are currently above them in the table. However, this good stretch had a moment of sadness, since they lost the final of the Concacaf Champions Cup 3-0 to Pachuca.
On the road, they have six games without a loss. Their last was on May 23, when they were beaten 2-0 by Charlotte. El “Cucho” Hernández has been their most outstanding player in MLS, with five goals and two assists.
There is only one player who could be absent for this franchise: goalkeeper Evan Bush.
