New York Red Bulls vs Inter Miami Prediction
New York Red Bulls vs Inter Miami Prediction and Betting Tips for Matchday 24 of the MLS, scheduled for Saturday, July 20 at Red Bull Arena. In this article, you’ll find MLS Predictions from XpertStats tipsters as the Eastern Conference playoff race intensifies.
- Red Bulls remain unbeaten at home since April, with 8 wins from 11 matches.
- Inter Miami boast one of the league’s best away records, with 18 points on the road.
- Both teams average over 3.7 total goals per match this season.
- Lionel Messi has 16 goals this season but was shut out by Cincinnati midweek.
The New York Red Bulls return to their home turf following a thrilling 5-3 comeback win against the New England Revolution. After falling behind 2-0 within 30 minutes, inspired performances from Emil Forsberg and Choupo-Moting flipped the script in the second half. That win not only snapped a six-match winless run but also extended their unbeaten streak at Red Bull Arena. With 8 wins in 11 home matches and nearly four goals per game on average (3.91), the Red Bulls will be confident of getting a result against a vulnerable Miami defense.
Sandro Schwarz’s side sit eighth in the standings with a wildcard spot currently in hand. A win on Saturday could catapult them into the top six. Their attack has been prolific, scoring 2.73 goals per game, and they’ve seen over 2.5 goals in 73% of their matches. Defensively, they remain shaky at times, having conceded 1.18 goals per game, a stat that could be tested again by Lionel Messi and Co.
Inter Miami arrive wounded after a 3-0 loss to FC Cincinnati, which ended their five-game MLS winning streak. Messi, who had scored back-to-back braces prior, was kept quiet midweek. Still, the Herons remain in fifth place, just five points clear of the Red Bulls, and have a strong away record with 18 points from 10 games. With an average of 3.7 goals per game and 80% of matches going over 2.5 goals, Miami will look to get back on the scoresheet fast.
Injury concerns continue to plague Javier Mascherano’s squad, with Oscar Ustari joining an already long list of absentees. However, their firepower up front, including Messi and the creative Luis Suarez, gives them hope of outgunning a leaky Red Bulls backline. With 70% of their games featuring both teams scoring, and their attacking metrics still among the best in the league, Miami are capable of pushing the pace in this crucial fixture.
This matchup promises plenty of entertainment and scoring opportunities. Both sides feature high-scoring offenses and defenses that have shown vulnerability. Given their statistical profiles and recent form, this is a prime fixture for MLS Predictions fans looking for goal-heavy betting angles.
Both New York Red Bulls and Inter Miami rank among the top MLS teams for goals scored and conceded. The Red Bulls average 2.73 goals scored and 1.18 conceded per game, while 64% of their matches have ended with both teams scoring. Inter Miami are even more BTTS-prone, with 70% of their games ending that way, driven by their attacking prowess (2.0 goals/game) and defensive lapses (1.7 goals conceded/game). With Choupo-Moting and Forsberg in excellent form for the hosts, and Messi looking to bounce back after drawing a blank against Cincinnati, both attacks have the quality to breach suspect defenses. Given the Red Bulls’ high-scoring home matches and Miami’s ability to find the net on the road, this matchup screams goals at both ends. With playoff positions at stake and two aggressive teams clashing, Both Teams to Score is a well-supported angle based on statistical consistency and team styles.
Both teams feature among the most high-scoring sides in MLS, with New York Red Bulls averaging 3.91 goals per match and Inter Miami close behind at 3.7. The Red Bulls have seen Over 2.5 Goals in 73% of their fixtures, while Miami matches have cleared that line in 80% of cases. Their respective last games show the trend: Red Bulls beat New England 5-3, and Miami lost 3-0 to Cincinnati. That’s 11 goals combined in just two matches. With attacking stars like Messi, Suarez, Forsberg, and Choupo-Moting on display, there’s enough firepower on both ends to expect another goal-filled affair. Injuries on the defensive side for Inter Miami only strengthen the case for an open game. Given their playing styles and stats, Over 2.5 Goals is one of the most reliable betting angles heading into Saturday’s clash at Red Bull Arena.
