Columbus Crew (home)
- Columbus Crew are 5-2-6 at home in MLS 2026.
- Columbus Crew look to continue their good recent form when they take on Inter Miami CF at ScottsMiracle-Gro Field on Sunday in a top-to-bottom MLS 2026 match-up.
- The hosts arrive on a two-game winning streak after beating Orlando City 2-1 in the US Open Cup and then defeating CF Montreal 2-0 in MLS 2026.
Inter Miami CF (away)
- Inter Miami CF are 4th in MLS 2026 with 46 points from 26 games.
- Inter Miami CF are in mixed form but unbeaten, drawing three straight following a 2-0 victory over Cruz Azul in the Campeones Cup.
- The Herons' last two games have both finished 2-2, with Nashville SC and San Diego FC taking points in MLS 2026.
- But Miami are a road team in MLS 2026, going 8-3-2 on their travels and scoring 28 goals in 13 away games.
Head-to-Head
The head-to-head in MLS 2026 between these sides is one Inter win and two draws from three games, with the Herons taking a 2-2 draw when they last met in Miami in MLS 2026.
Key Players
- Diego Rossi is Columbus' main goal threat with six goals in 15 games for the Black & Gold this season and he will punish any sloppy defending by Miami on Sunday.
- Casemiro is also a player who can score goals for the Herons with three in his last five games as Miami have bagged eight goals in that spell.
- They will have the upper hand in the possession and Messi is the ultimate game-breaker with 20 goals in 23 MLS 2026 matches for the Herons.
Betting Insights
-
Match odds:
- Miami's odds are only a little better than evens at 2.12, while Columbus are 2.9 and the draw is 3.95.
-
Goals markets:
- The over/under is set at 2.5 goals and the odds of 1.36 look very generous, while both teams to score at 1.33 looks a near certainty given the recent form of both teams.
Prediction
- The form of Miami in this game gives them a slight advantage over the Crew, but I will hold off on backing them to win because I see this as a tight matchup.
- Columbus are just 5-2-6 at home so the visitors should come out on top here.
