Inter Miami Hoping to Beat Orlando City for the First Time Since 2020

Inter Miami is currently in the #7 spot in the Eastern Conference, the last one that leads to the postseason. Unfortunately for them, Columbus Crew have the same number of points and is just one spot below. Inter Miami have more wins, meaning that if the two end the regular season on equal points, they will advance to the postseason.

What this practically means is that unless Inter Miami beat Orlando City, their playoffs fate will be decided by Columbus Crew. That said, you can be certain that Inter’s players are going to give their utmost to win the Florida Derby.

The big question is whether they have the manpower to pull it off. What needs to worry them is that they haven’t triumphed in the Florida Derby since October 2020.

Orlando City Must Not Lose Against Their Interstate Rivals

Orlando City only need not to lose against Inter Miami to secure a place in the MLS Playoffs. The good news is that they tend to do well in the games against their interstate rivals. The bad news is that their recent form isn’t great.

Orlando City lost three of their previous four games, conceding eight goals along the way. Their only win in September happened against desperate Toronto FC. Orlando beat them 4-0 at home.

Inter Miami vs Orlando City Prediction
