Our prediction for this MLS match:
DC United and Inter Miami square off against each other at Audi Field in what is expected to be an exciting Major League Soccer game. The capital club aim to remain undefeated in the 2023/2024 season, but they will have a big fish to fry against Leo Messi and Co. All Christian Benteke, Mohanad Jeahze, Tyler Miller, Russell Canouse, and Steven Birnbaum should miss out with injuries for the home side.
The Herons, on the other hand, failed to make life difficult for Montreal at the weekend, but it has to be noted that both Leo Messi missed the match with a hamstring problem. As the Argentina superstar is unlike to recover in time to face DC United, we are tempted to put our money on the home team. Luis Suarez, on the other hand, is widely expected to return to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in the defeat to Montreal.
