Inter Miami and DC United have met many times and mostly it is Inter Miami who have come away with the better result. In the most recent meeting, when DC United were the hosts, they lost 1-2, and before that at Nu Stadium, Inter Miami won 3-2. But this time DC United are not arriving in the same shape, because a defence that used to leak has started to hold itself together better. Inter Miami are still a team whose attack works consistently, scoring 64 goals from 27 matches, but lately their results have not been by much, especially the latest match where they lost 1-2 after drawing 2-2 two games in a row. As for DC United, they draw often and lose by narrow margins. Their last league match was a 3-3 draw after a 0-0 before that. DC United's defence still has areas to worry about, especially in the second half, where they have conceded several goals in total. The expected pattern of play should be Inter Miami dominating possession in the style of the home side, with Lionel Andres Messi Cuccittini and Luis Suarez leading the attack and Rodrigo Javier de Paul controlling the tempo in midfield, while DC United are likely to sit back in a 4-4-2 and wait to counter. The first half may be less open than expected, but the second half should have more goals than the first, because both teams tend to concede more in the second half than the first.
