Sunday's game at Chase Stadium pits together in-form Inter Miami and Columbus Crew. As the Herons look unstoppable at the moment, we predict a 2-1 home win. The Herons have been unstoppable since the league resumed, putting together a six-game winning streak despite Lionel Messi's absence. Guillermo Hoyos' men defeated both Chicago Fire and CF Montreal while averaging an impressive 3.0 goals per game over their last ten matches. Messi could make at least a cameo appearance after being rested, adding even more firepower to a side that has won every one of its last five away league games and remains one of the strongest attacking teams in MLS.
Columbus Crew, meanwhile, arrive in Florida on the back of a morale-boosting 2-1 victory over FC Cincinnati, but their away form remains a concern. The Crew have failed to win any of their last three league matches on the road, conceding 2.33 goals per game in that spell. Forward Wessam Abou Ali is expected to miss out through injury, reducing the visitors' attacking options. Even though Columbus have scored in seven of their last ten matches, containing Inter Miami's red-hot attack could prove a bridge too far.
Inter Miami are riding a six-game winning streak and have dominated this fixture in recent years. Therefore, Home Win is our main betting tip for this MLS matchup, alongside Inter Miami Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total (8 of the last 11 meetings between these sides have produced at least three goals).
This MLS match will be played on Sunday 2 August 2026 at 00:30.
