The league table in Major League Soccer tells a story about these teams so far, with Toronto leading Inter Miami by 20 points. Match preview to follow:
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Toronto and Inter Miami.
Toronto form and stats
Toronto have collected 21 points from their Major League Soccer home games so far after 6-3-2.
Stress levels are on the rise for Toronto's attacking players as they have now played 181 minutes without scoring in a league game. P. Piatti was their last goal scorer.
The Toronto crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to New York City here at Pratt & Whitney Stadium at Rentschler Field in a Major League Soccer match. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-5 away at Philadelphia Union.
This is expected to be a close game, with Toronto perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Toronto as a small favourite), we find three games. Toronto has won two of these, drawn zero and lost one.
Toronto are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 14 goals in 11 games. From these home matches, Toronto have conceded only 7 goals.
Inter Miami form and stats
Inter Miami have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Major League Soccer, after 2-1-9 (12 played). Inter has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
Inter play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-2 to Dallas. Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Orlando City.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Inter Miami playing away and similar expectations, we found six relevant matches. Results were one Inter Miami win, zero draws and five defeats.
The visitors have scored 10 goals from 12 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Inter have conceded 19 goals in these games.
