Why Bet on Inter Miami?
Inter Miami shifts its focus back to MLS. After resting its big stars last weekend to prioritize the CONCACAF Champions Cup, the team can fully concentrate on the league and aim to climb the standings this Saturday.
They are coming off a wild loss against Dallas. Miami was leading 3-1—without Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez, Jordi Alba, or Sergio Busquets—but the Texas side made a stunning comeback to win 3-4, handing Inter Miami their first defeat.
With 18 points, they currently sit fifth in the Eastern Conference, although they have a game in hand. If they win that pending match, they could move to within just one point of East leaders Cincinnati. They have scored 16 goals, with five coming from Messi, and have conceded 10. They have only failed to score in one match so far.
However, at home, their record hasn’t been as strong, with two wins, two draws, and one loss.
Why Bet on the NY Red Bulls?
The NY Red Bulls returned to winning ways by defeating Montréal 1-0, moving into the Play-In zone, where they hope to stay.
A header from Noah Eile in the 67th minute was enough for the New Yorkers to secure all three points after a draw and a home loss against DC United. With 15 points, they sit in eighth place in the Eastern Conference.
Without a doubt, Emil Forsberg and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting are the team’s stars, with the Swedish scoring three goals and the Cameroonian four. However, more is expected from them given their international careers, having spent many years shining in European football—mainly in German— and with their national teams.
On the road, their performance has been poor, with two draws and two losses, scoring just one goal and conceding three.
It’s also worth noting that another European star, Scottish striker Lewis Morgan, remains sidelined after undergoing knee surgery and is expected to be out for a few more weeks.

The numbers at Gambyl Exchange favor Inter Miami, with a Moneyline of 1.60, while the NY Red Bulls stand at 5.0 and a draw at 4.43.
The last time they faced each other was almost exactly a year ago, on May 4, 2024, when Inter won 6-2 with three goals and an assist from Suárez, one goal and five assists from Messi, and a brace from Matías Rojas.
The record in Miami actually favors the Red Bulls, with three wins for them and two losses, and overall as well, with Inter winning four matches compared to six victories for their rivals. They have never tied.
