After two wins on the bounce, one that carved out a safe passage to the final of the US Open Cup, the Columbus Crew have a chance of making the play offs, but their work is far from done. In front of a home crowd on Sunday evening, the men in yellow need to pick up all three points. Hoping to stop them from doing that will be an Inter Miami team that has won just one of the last five.
From a betting angle, 'Brais Mendez to Score' appeals. Early odds of +200 don't quite reflect just how dangerous the Spaniard is, and with the visitors operating in very open style, the former Real Sociedad forward could easily enjoy himself in the final third, as he's done in each of his last two games for the Crew, as well as in three of his last five.

Our Columbus Crew vs Inter Miami Prediction
Facing Inter Miami isn't always easy, but the hosts arrive in decent form, and let's face it, for all they're strong, the visitors do give plenty away at the back, so this game is a decent chance for the Crew to continue thriving offensively. Brais Mendez is starting to thrive, scoring in each of his last two, and if he can deliver a similar effort here, he'll likely hurt defensively weak opposition.
As we can see from the above, the Spaniard has posted some encouraging numbers of late, so much so that he warrants more respect in the betting. Value bettors should take anything bigger than +175.
