Inter Miami vs Columbus Crew Moneyline Prediction
- Moneyline Pick: Columbus Crew
- Odds: +275 (Tonybet)
Based on recent form alone, it’s easy to understand why Inter Miami are favourites. They’ve won each of their last six league matches and have dropped just one of their last 10 overall (W8, D1, L1). However, it’s difficult to see them sustaining this form for an extended stretch considering all the absences they’re dealing with.
Columbus haven’t been nearly as good as Miami, but they should be motivated for this clash following their 2-1 victory over FC Cincinnati in the “Hell Is Real” derby. The Crew have won three of their last four matches across all competitions and are finding ways to adjust following the departure of key forward Diego Rossi.

Although Inter Miami are on a three-game winning streak at home, they’re just too depleted to compete here, as they’re missing more than five starters due to either injury, suspension, or rest. Columbus are getting healthier by the day, and they should take advantage of a depleted Inter Miami side to pull off an upset, even if they’re winless in their last four on the road (D1, L3).
Inter Miami vs Columbus Crew Player Prop
- Prop Bet: Jamal Thiare to score anytime
If Columbus are to pull off the upset, they’ll need to play with the same intensity they showed in the derby against Cincinnati. One player who needs to step up again is Jamal Thiare.
With Rossi gone and Wessam Abou Ali out for the season, Thiare should handle a bigger role. He made his presence felt in the derby last week by scoring a goal, so he should feature in the starting XI.
Inter Miami vs Columbus Crew Same Game Parlay
- SGP: Columbus Crew to win + Both teams to score + Under 6.5 total goals
- Odds: +550 (Tonybet)
We’re backing Columbus to pull off the upset against a depleted Inter Miami squad. That said, this is unlikely to be a one-sided affair. Expect an open, competitive match in which both teams find the back of the net, especially with Luis Suarez, who has scored six goals in his last three league games, leading the line for Miami.
The numbers support this pick. BTTS has landed in six of the Herons’ last eight outings and in seven of Columbus’ last nine across all competitions.
The under 6.5 goals leg adds value to the parlay. This bet has failed to hit in three of Miami’s last seven encounters, but that shouldn’t be the case here given how depleted they are.

Inter Miami Team News
Few teams in MLS are as depleted as Inter Miami are ahead of this match. They remain without two of their best players, Lionel Messi and Rodrigo De Paul, as the star duo is being rested following the 2026 FIFA World Cup. They’ve yet to report to training, so neither will be an option for this clash.

They’re also missing German Berterame (head) and Tadeo Allende (knee) due to injury. Maximiliano Falcon and Gonzalo Lujan are out with calf issues, while Ian Fray is suspended, along with Telasco Segovia.
The Herons will be without key contributors on both sides of the ball but will have Luis Suarez leading the attack.
Columbus Crew Team News
Columbus will make a late decision on whether playmaker Brais Méndez is available for his long-awaited debut. Even if he’s fit enough to play, he’s not expected to start. Brooks Lennon is also a game-time call for the Crew as he’s dealing with a groin injury.

They’ll also be without Wessam Abou Ali, the current top scorer in the squad with five goals, due to a season-ending knee injury. That means players like Jamal Thiare and Daniel Gazdag will need to take on bigger roles in the final third.
