Inter Miami vs Columbus Crew Preview

Inter Miami, of course, approached this fixture with significant momentum on their side, winning their last match along with having braces for both their star players, Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez. Inter Miami were desperately looking for a win in the last few matches and it finally came midweek and they have now scored 11 goals in the last five matches which is a piece of very good news for their attacking output.

On the defensive side of things, they have struggled and have not been able to keep a clean sheet for eight consecutive games, which the away side will definitely look forward to exploiting. The Columbus crew, on the other hand, will try to seek consistency. Their attacking department has been producing generous outputs with 10 goals in their last five matches, but their defensive problems also remain a worry, failing to keep a clean sheet in their last 10 fixtures.

Inter Miami

The name that currently draws global attention towards the Major League Soccer, Inter Miami, is looking in much better shape than they started their campaign with. As mentioned earlier, their star men performing in the last match significantly added their momentum, but they will still need to do better in their defensive unit. The recent momentum, paired with the home crowd, will certainly be one of the deciding factors as to how the league table shapes up after this game.

Columbus Crew

The Columbus Crew had a decent start to the season and will look to continue the good momentum despite having a draw midweek against Nashville at home. They are currently having a record of seven wins and six draws in the competition so far. But their attacking fare has been quite decent. A good result on the weekend might solidify their league standing in the upper half of the table.
