Toronto form and stats

Toronto's results here at BMO Training Ground & Academy in the Major League Soccer have been very modest with 1 victory, 5 draws and 3 defeats. With seven home Major League Soccer games in a row without a win, the Toronto fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Columbus Crew game long ago, can be stopped today.

Toronto faced defeat in their previous match, away at Cincinnati (0-2). Midfielder Michael Bradley was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.22 (out of ten) in that game. Bradley hit five key passes and had 67 successful passes (of 76 total).

Prior to that, an away loss at Montreal Impact.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Toronto have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found nine matches with the results: Won four, drawn three and lost two.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Major League Soccer game versus Nashville SC in only four days. This game is also played here at BMO Training Ground & Academy.

The Toronto fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 12 in 9 matches. Toronto have conceded 14 from these games.

Inter Miami form and stats

As the visiting team in Major League Soccer matches, Inter Miami have produced an overall stat of 3-3-4 so far.

298 minutes! That's how long the Inter goalkeeper Nick Marsman and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

Inter won their last game, 1-0 versus Columbus Crew played at home. Defender Leandro González Pírez was the best team player with a rating of 7.6. Pírez won 6 of 11 duels.

Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at Cincinnati.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found ten similar matches played by Inter Miami in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Inter, zero draws and seven defeats.

After this away game Inter return home for a Major League Soccer game against New York RB. That game is only three sleeps after this.

The attacking power of Inter Miami when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored from 10 league matches away. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (9 so far).

Head 2 Head

The contenders have played each other previously this season, with the match result Inter Miami - Toronto 3-1 registered in the official records. H2H stats regardless of arena (last two matches): Toronto one win, zero draws and Inter Miami one victory. As for goals, two matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), zero games had two or less.
