Competition: MLS
Market: Both teams to score
Odds: 8/11 @ 888sport
In an MLS showdown that tends to see chances at both ends of the pitch, Orlando will host Inter Miami in the early hours of Sunday.
Starting with the hosts, while Orlando might have managed to book their spot in the semi-final of this year’s US Open Cup last month, the Purples came crashing back down to earth last weekend. Putting in a nightmare display at the back as they were hit with a stunning 5-3 defeat against DC United on home soil, Head Coach Óscar Pareja has seen his side gain a reputation for their inconsistencies. Although the Florida-based outfit might still find themselves sat in pole position to claim another Final Series spot this season, Orlando have managed to muster just a single MLS victory from their last six attempts. Likewise, coming off the back of that eight-goal thriller, Pareja’s men have gained a reputation for their lively outcomes. On a run that stems all the way back to April 24th, Sunday’s hosts have seen each of their previous seven domestic contests finish with both teams finding the net.
As for the visitors, managing to mount a last-gasp rally last weekend as they grabbed a 1-1 draw away at Dallas, Inter Miami will be looking to build off of that success. Making the trip to Florida in the early hours of Sunday sat within striking distance of breaking into the Final Series spots, Phil Neville’s men have largely impressed many across the MLS this season. Including a 3-1 victory against Minnesota on June 25th, it should be highlighted that the former Manchester United defender has seen his side suffer just a single top-flight defeat since the start of May. However, without a win on their travels in their previous six attempts, Sunday’s opponents do hold a reputation for their lively meetings. In their eight previous meetings while on domestic duties, seven of those showdowns have finished with both teams finding the net.
Bet: Both teams to score at Orlando City vs Inter Miami 8/11 for Sunday’s MLS matchup @ 888sport
