Inter Miami form and stats

With 1 Major League Soccer win, 2 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Inter Miami are certainly not brimming with confidence.

An away draw last time out for Inter, facing Orlando City in a game that ended 1-1. Defender Kieran Gibbs got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.33/10. Gibbs scored one goal and won 3 of 5 duels.

Before that, Inter had a home game versus Montreal Impact which ended with a victory 2-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Inter Miami perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Inter Miami as a small favourite), we find two games. Inter Miami has won zero of these, drawn zero and lost two.

Inter Miami aren't scoring a lot here in the league, with only 7 goals from 8 games. Inter have conceded 18 goals in these home games, a significant number.

Nashville SC form and stats

There's been little loot from Nashville SC's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 6 away games in the Major League Soccer. Nashville SC only have 0 wins to counter their 1 defeat and 5 draws. One point away has become something of a habit for Nashville SC who have played out draws in their last three away games.

Nashville has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to New England for a Major League Soccer game that ended a draw (0-0). Goalkeeper Joe Willis got the top player rating of the team with 8.33/10. Willis stopped the opponent with six saves and topped it up with a clean sheet. Joe Willis had red hot gloves after the game against New England, shaping the outcome of the game with six saves made.

Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to Toronto.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by Nashville in our archives, and the results are: one win for Nashville SC, four draws and two defeats.

Nashville SC are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 3 goals from 6 away games. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (5 so far).
