Our prediction for this MLS match:
Inter Miami
Match Time & Date:

01:30
Prediction: 3-1
Philadelphia Union
Following back-to-back wins over Cincinnati and Chicago Fire, Inter Miami will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Philadelphia Union on Sunday morning. The Herons have been sharp up front recently, and they are expected to maintain their offensive approach. All Sergiy Kryvtsov, Nicolas Freire, Facundo Farias, and Argentina ace Lionel Messi are sidelined with injuries.
Meanwhile, the U’s aim to build on a 2-0 win over New York Red Bulls. Philadelphia Union are eager to move closer to the playoffs berth, but they will have a big fish to fry against Luis Suarez and Co. Considering that Philadelphia have suffered four defeats in the previous five away games in the MLS, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match. Both Daniel Gazdag and Isaiah LeFlore are out of contention with injuries for the visiting side.
Highlighted Player (Lionel Messi):
Lionel Messi is regarded as one of the best players in the history of football. He was born on 24 June, 1987 in Rosario and he began his football career at Newell’s Old Boys. At age 10 he was diagnosed with a growth hormone deficiency, but having realized his potential at a young age, Barcelona decided to pay for his treatment.
Messi joined Barca in 2001 and he has been playing for the Camp Nou outfit ever since. The Argentine magician has won eight La Liga trophies with Barca and he helped the Catalan giants lift no less than four Champions League titles (2005/2006, 2008/2009, 2010/2011, 2014/2015).
In the 2011/2012 La Liga campaign Messi scored 50 goals for Barca, while netting 14 goals in the 2011/2012 Champions League campaign. The five-time Golden Ball award winner has established himself as Barcelona’s all-time top scorer, but he has yet to win a trophy with Argentina national team at major tournaments. Leo Messi, though, has won Olympic Gold Medal (2008) and FIFA World Youth Championship (2005), with la Albiceleste.
Highlighted Team (Philadelphia Union):
Based in Chester, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia Union is an American soccer club that compete in Major League Soccer. The U have been participating in MLS since 2010, but they have yet to win the domestic trophy. Philadelphia welcome their opponents at Talen Energy Stadium, the venue that was opened on June 27, 2010 and current capacity of the stadium is 18.500.
The U made it to the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup final on two occasions (2014, 2015), but they were beaten by Seattle Sounders and Sporting Kansas City respectively in the title games. The likes of D.C. United and New York Red Bulls are regarded as the club’s fiercest rivals, but they share a rivalry with Seattle Sounders as well.
Philadelphia’s colors are navy blue and gold, but they wear white shirts and white socks when playing on the road. USA international Freddy Adu is one of the most notable footballers who player for the U in the past. The former Benfica man scored seven goals in 37 appearances for Philadelphia Union in MLS.
