Here is our New York Red Bulls v Inter Miami tip and game preview. Based on our detailed analysis of statistics listed below and other factors, we predicted both teams to score in this game, under 2.5 goals, and a tie. Our confidence in this pick was moderate relative to other picks.
New York RB and Inter Miami meet in all-Eastern Conference clash in what is also a top six encounter at the Red Bull Arena with both teams looking to build upon promising starts to this new MLS campaign although New York RB will head into this upcoming clash on the back of a resounding 3-0 defeat away from home at Columbus Crew last weekend, while Inter Miami registered a second win in three games by collecting all three points courtesy of an impressive 3-1 win away from home at DC United.
Up until last weekend though, New York RB had produced an encouraging start to this new MLS campaign as the hosts had picked up seven points from their opening three games of this new season which came in the form of a draw followed by back-to-back wins.
A point with a 0-0 draw away from home at Nashville on the opening day of the season was followed by two wins on the trot as Sandro Schwarz's side accounted for the likes of Houston Dynamo and Dallas, both by 2-1 margins, to give the hosts a solid start to the season.
Having played just one home game so far, New York RB will be keen to test their mettle against Inter Miami on home soil on Saturday.
Onto Inter Miami then and the visitors occupy top spot in the early Eastern Conference standings thanks to three wins and a draw along with just one defeat from their opening five games of this new term.
Despite producing a disappointing finish to last season's campaign which culminated in failing to win any of their final six games, Inter Miami have made an impressive start to this new season as the visitors have registered three wins within their opening five games of the new season.
Victories against Real Salt Lake, Orlando City and the aforementioned win against DC United, the latter being away from home, are expected to give Gerardo Martino's side plenty of confidence as they prepare for this road trip to the Red Bull Arena to take on hosts, New York RB on Saturday.
International stars, Luis Suarez (4 goals) and Lionel Messi (3 goals) will be keen to continue their early goalscoring sprees at the expense of New York RB, while the goals market also appeals here as six of Inter Miami's last 10 matches overall have produced goals for both teams.
NY Red Bulls v Inter Miami Verdict
The previous four meetings between New York RB and Inter Miami have resulted in two wins apiece and another tight battle is expected at the Red Bull Arena here on Saturday as both teams have produced encouraging starts to this season and both look set to score in this one.
