CF Montréal vs Inter Miami CF: Prediction for the Match on July 06, 2025
While Sunday’s match between CF Montréal and Inter Miami looms, the football world mourns the tragic demise of the gifted Liverpool forward, Diogo Jota, who passed away on July 3, 2025. His sudden death sent shockwaves through the beautiful game of football. Telecomasia extends its deepest condolences to Jota’s family and loved ones.
In the backdrop of such grief, life-glorifying football must go on and continue to unite the people. The dire-placed CF Montréal from the cellar of the Eastern Conference shall receive the talented Inter Miami led by the dynamic duo of Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez. High stakes, opposite forms come together in Montreal to offer a treat. Jota’s tragic demise surely sets a sad tone, but this very game stands for survival, unity, and love for football.

CF Montréal has entered this fixture at the bottom of the Eastern Conference with a record of 3 wins, 5 draws, and 12 losses across 20 matches. Inconsistency, wastefulness, and porous defense have bedeviled their campaign, with 41 goals conceded, just the second-worst in MLS this season. Recent performances, however, offer the glimpse of a resurrection. They had snagged a 1-0 win over NYCFC to register their first victory at the Saputo Stadium and shared a 1-1 draw away to Chicago a week later. However, a 3-1 loss at home to FC Cincinnati swiftly rekindled that despondency.
Montréal's home form remains troubling, with only one victory in nine home fixtures. They are scoring less than 1.1 goals per game and conceding nearly 2 at home. Since March, interim head coach Marco Donadel has tried to focus mainly on re-building the spirit and structure of the team. The club has focused social media attention on the encouraging development of midfielder Michael Loturi, hopeful after his goal. Montréal are also faced with a demanding schedule, testing their shallow squad depths. Facing one of the deadliest teams in the league, this will be the biggest test of mentality and not just tactics.

Lineup: Jonathan Sirois, Mathieu Bugaj, Kamal Miller, Joel Waterman, Kamal Miller, Zachary Brault-Guillard, Loturi, Victor Wanyama, Jordi Mboula, Prince Owusu, Romell Quioto

Inter Miami CF: form and statistics
Inter Miami CF currently is in seventh place in the Eastern Conference with 8 wins, 5 draws, and 3 losses from 16 games, accumulating 29 points, just behind New York City FC, which is sixth. After having a great chance to win in two of their last five, they have not come away with a victory in five of their last eight matches and have MLS's strongest body offensive stature, having scored 36 goals-the second most in the East. Out on the road, they are doing quite well, picking up just one loss in seven away games.
After Miami impressed in the Club World Cup by advancing into the Round of 16, the team now reenters league action and wants to hit fast with a win over Montréal. The head coach: Javier Mascherano, gave a fiery message through the press demanding improvement and tightening of the defense following the two latest results in the domestic competition, 3–3 and 0–3. There are doubts about the fitness of Callender, Ruiz, Bright, and Lujan, yet they have never been brighter going forward with Messi, Suárez, and Farías powering their attacking front. Miami wants to rise up the standings and use this encounter to spring toward steadier performances.

Lineup: Oscar Ustari, Weigandt, Martínez, Falckon, Jordi Alba, Facundo Farías, Federico Redondo, Sergio Busquets, David Ruiz, Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez

CF Montréal vs Inter Miami CF Match Prediction
For this matchup, my top pick is Both Teams to Score (BTTS). Despite their struggles, Montréal have found the net in five of their last six games, and Miami’s defense has conceded in six straight MLS matches. With Messi and Suárez up front, Miami rarely fails to score.
Next, I’m backing Over 3 Goals. These teams combined for six goals in their last meeting, and both averaged over 1.5 goals per game. Montréal’s leaky backline and Miami’s firepower point to another high-scoring contest.
Finally, I like Lionel Messi to score anytime. He’s been in great form, scoring in four of his last five games, and thrives against teams lower in the table. In a match where Miami will dominate possession, Messi will have his chances—and usually takes them. A summary of my 3 picks are:-
Both Teams to Score — 1.6 odds on Bet365
Over 3 Goals — 1.83 odds on 1xbet
Lionel Messi to Score Anytime — 2.00 odds on Betway
