Inter Miami CF Stadium
Fort Lauderdale, USA
After suffering back-to-back losses against New York City and Toronto FC, Inter Miami are welcome Chicago Fire to the Inter Miami stadium for the 5th round MLS match. Inter Miami have failed to produce similar results they had in the first 2 matches of the season, when they beat Montreal and Philadelphia Union. Chicago Fire are in an even worse situation, they have not won a single league game after playing 3 matches. Even worse, they’ve had to deal with suspension of two key players, after they both picked up red cards against Philadelphia Union.

Expert Betting Tips
These two teams are not happy with their current form and will fight hard to correct their errors. However, I am inclined to lean towards Inter Miami earning at least a draw. The home advantage is a huge factor in such matches, especially for teams who are anxious for positive results.
