Inter Miami vs. FC Cincinnati Prediction
Inter Miami is arguably the best team on the continent. Gerardo Martino has plenty of star power at his disposal, with his key man being Lionel Messi. The soccer GOAT is expected to return, but even without him, the Herons would need to be thought of as favorites. This goes especially because they’re eager to set things straight with FC Cincinnati.
