The Herons hope to reduce the deficit at the top when they lock horns against FC Cincinnati at the Chase Stadium on Sunday. The Garys, who occupy the top spot on the table, will be keen to extend their lead, especially against an Inter Miami side who could be without their most valuable player, Messi, later this weekend.

Inter Miami CF vs FC Cincinnati match prediction 27 July 2025

Inter Miami have lost just once across their previous eight MLS games, making them one of the strong contenders for the title. They were pretty decent in their most recent game, scoring five times to amass all the points. Meanwhile, FC Cincinnati occupy the top spot on the log, following their slim victory over Real Lake Salt on the road. 

Inter Miami are still unsure if Messi or Alba will feature in this encounter after failing to turn up for the MLS All-Stars game. This fixture is more than just a game as Inter Miami will be keen to avenge the defeat against FC Cincinnati a few days ago.

If everything goes as planned, this game will produce goals as both teams are expected to flex their muscles in front of the goal. Having said that, a winner will emerge here later this weekend, and it is likely to be Inter Miami who will play in front of their home supporters. 

My match prediction is for FC Cincinnati to score before the break with a coefficient of 1.92 on the 1xbet bookmaker.

My betting tip for this game is for anyone to win and BTTS for a coefficient of 1.96 on the Betway bookmaker.

My final prediction is BTTS and over 2.5 goals for a coefficient of 1.61 on the Bet365 bookmaker.

Good luck!
