Inter Miami CF vs. Nashville SC picks and predictions
Prediction
Inter Miami 3, Nashville SC 2
Moneyline (ML)
PASS.
The draw has some value here, but considering Inter has won 3 of 4 games in which Messi has been the captain and is 2-0-0 at home in those games, there isn’t much reason to think Nashville will keep pace.
Nashville has drawn 4 of 7 games this season. At +350, the draw is the only playable side, but it still isn’t the best value on the table in this game.
Over/Under (O/U)
BET OVER 3.5 (+132).
Nashville’s defense has been a mess this season, allowing at least 2 goals in 3 straight games. They have allowed 9 goals in their last 3 games and have given up more than 1.0 expected goals in all but 1 game to far less competent attacks. Nashville has also scored at least 2 goals in 3 of its last 5.
Inter has gone Over this total in 2 straight games and in 6 of their last 7. They have tallied 5 goals in their last 2 games and have allowed 9 goals in their last 4. Considering those trends from both sides, back OVER 3.5 (+132).
