An Eastern Conference clash in the MLS on Saturday evening sees the eighth-place Philadelphia Union playing host to conference-leading Inter Miami. Philadelphia come into this contest off the back of a 2-2 home draw against Montreal. It will go down as a frustrating point earned for Jim Curtin’s side as the home team dominated on the stat sheet but was unable to hold on to their 2-1 lead. The result does make it four unbeaten for the Union although the last three have all ended in stalemates. They'll now look to improve on their uncharacteristically poor record at Subaru Park where they have recorded just a single win in eight league fixtures. Philadelphia currently sits eighth in the Eastern Conference on a total of 20 points, putting them four points behind defending champions Columbus for the final automatic qualification playoff spot.

It’s been a fine campaign so far for Inter Miami as we pass the halfway mark in the regular season. They came into the year as the betting favorites and they haven’t disappointed so far. Inter holds a two-point lead over second-place Cincinnati, although last season’s Supporters’ Shield winners have an advantage of two games in hand. Inter Miami have been must-see TV and lead the league in goals scored at 42. Of course, much of Inter’s firepower is attributed to one of the best strike duos in football history in Messi and Suarez. The megastars have each netted 12 goals a piece while Messi has also chipped in 13 assists, a league high. Inter will be looking to get back to winning ways after a defeat to Atlanta was followed up by an action-packed 3-3 draw with St. Louis in their last outing.
