Inter Miami CF vs Toronto FC Prediction: The stage is set for an Inter Miami comeback

Inter Miami CF is back at the Chase Stadium for another MLS match against Toronto FC. Inter Miami CF were dethroned from the top of the table after suffering a humbling defeat against FC Cincinnati in their last match. It was a tough defeat for the team after such a long run of good results, but now they have to put that behind them and get back to winning again. And for Toronto, they managed to wake up from a nightmare of results that has lasted for months. They got a win over Philadelphia Union in their last match and that ended a long streak of defeats. But with the result, they still need the right mentality to build a winning run, but the odds are saying they are nowhere near a turnaround, so they are heading into another defeat against Inter Miami CF.

Inter Miami is in 2nd place on the eastern conference table with 47 points, while Toronto FC is 8th with 27 points.

Inter Miami CF

Inter Miami CF got exposed badly in their last game against FC Cincinnati and as a result they were thoroughly destroyed. How that affects the mentality of the team will be put on display in their upcoming game against Toronto FC. Inter Miami CF are still in a strong position to beat Toronto FC in this match and they would be hilarious not to take it especially with Cincinnati only 1 point ahead of them at the top of the table.

Inter Miami’s last 5 results showed 4 wins and 1 defeat (WWWWL), and at home they had 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat (WWLDW). Finally across 10 league games Inter Miami recorded 6 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats.

Inter Miami’s 6-1 defeat to FC Cincinnati last week has to be their biggest nightmare this season. FC Cincinnati’s opening goal came in the 10th minute and then in the 21st minute Serhiy Kryvtsov equalized for Inter Miami, but after that the team fell off and conceded 3 more goals before the end of the first half. And in the second half, Inter Miami conceded 2 more and Sergio Busquets was shown a red card in the 62nd minute. According to stats, Inter Miami CF had 47% possession, 3 big chances, 4 goalkeeper saves, 5 corner kicks and 4 shots on target.

Toronto FC

Toronto FC maintain their status as the underdogs in this upcoming game against Inter Miami FC. They had been on a terrible run for such a long time and how they manage to still stay away from the bottom of the table is a surprise. Toronto FC had a good win against a struggling Philadelphia Union side in their last game and for that they deserve some credit, but in the grand scheme of things, they are just another very poor club. They head to the Chase Stadium to face an anxious Inter Miami CF team and the odds are not in Toronto’s favor.

Toronto’s last 5 results were: 1 win and 4 defeats (LLLLW), and away from home they had 2 draws and 3 defeats (DDLLL). Across 10 league games, Toronto recorded 1 win, 2 draws and 7 defeats (LDDLLLLLLW).

Toronto defeated fellow-strugglers Philadelphia Union 2-1 in their last match. Philadelphia Union had the first goal in the 39th minute and Toronto failed to respond by the end of the first half. But they finally had their chance after Jack Elliott scored an own goal in the 74th minute to hand Toronto FC the equalizer and 4 minutes later, Deandre Kerr scored the winning goal for Toronto to complete the comeback. Toronto’s stats at the end of the game were: 62% possession, 1 big chance, 2 goalkeeper saves, 0 corner kicks and 2 shots on target.

Expert Betting Options

Inter Miami deserve a shot at redemption for their previous run of good results. The defeat to FC Cincinnati meant one thing, and that was they were not totally invincible and although the extent of the defeat was totally embarrassing, I think Inter Miami have a tough mentality to get back to winning ways. It's also a good advantage that they are coming up against a very weak Toronto FC team and also playing as hosts. Inter Miami has no reason not to win this game and get back to winning ways once again.
