Inter Miami CF vs DC United Predictions

• Less than three goals have been scored in four of the last five Inter Miami matches.
• DC United have lost all three of their away MLS contests this season.
• Three of DC United’s five defeats in total have been by a 1-0 scoreline.

Scrappy affair in Miami could be decided by one goal

Inter Miami will see the visit of struggling DC United as a major chance to get their stuttering second season in the league back on track.

The Herons hold a 2-2-3 record coming into this one but have picked up only a solitary point from their three home games to date.

Phil Neville’s men were also way below their best during their most recent defeat at Soldier Field, prompting the former England Women manager to criticise his team.

How they react to that could well define Inter Miami’s campaign, but they next get to face a team also seemingly in crisis.

DC United have lost their last two in similar circumstances – by dominating in every phase except putting the ball in the back of the net.

Striker Ola Kamara, who boasted an impressive MLS goal ratio of one in two before he joined United, has managed to tally just five goals in 26 appearances since the start of last season.

Hernan Losada’s men have also been decimated by injuries this season and that curse struck again on Sunday when playmaker Edison Flores went down 30 seconds into their 1-0 home defeat to Philadelphia.

If Inter’s dressing room reacts positively to Neville’s kick up the rear then they should edge a close one here by 1-0 – a scoreline that has haunted the Black-and-Red.

But the hosts’ home form is so worrying that a better play would be to take the odds of around Evens for this one to feature less than three goals.
