Prediction: Columbus Crew SC VS Inter Miami CF 2025-05-31
The stage is set for a thrilling matchup between Inter Miami CF, led by the incomparable Lionel Messi, and Columbus Crew SC. Inter Miami is riding high after a 4-2 thrashing of CF Montréal, with Messi and Luis Suárez scoring two goals each. However, they can't afford to get complacent, as they're currently sixth in the standings with 26 points and need to maintain their playoff spot.
Columbus Crew, on the other hand, is looking to bounce back from a 2-2 draw against Nashville SC. They're currently fourth in the standings with 28 points, and a win against Inter Miami would be a huge boost to their playoff hopes.
Now, let's talk injuries. Inter Miami has several players out due to muscle and physical injuries, which could affect their rotation and tactical approach. But, with Messi on the field, you can never count them out.
The odds are looking good for Inter Miami, with FanDuel listing them as favorites at 2.1, while Columbus Crew is at 3.0. The draw is priced at 3.9. I'm going to take Inter Miami to win, but it's going to be a close one. My best bet is Inter Miami CF to win, priced at 2.1 on FanDuel.
As for the total, I'm leaning towards the under. Inter Miami has been solid defensively, and Columbus Crew has struggled to score against top teams. The under 3.5 goals is priced at 1.85 on Bovada, which looks like a good value bet.
So, there you have it. Inter Miami CF to win, and under 3.5 goals. Don't @ me.
