There’s a big clash to recommence the MLS season in the Eastern Conference this Wednesday, with two of the top three teams in the table, Inter Miami and Chicago Fire, take to the stage at Nu Stadium. The early market strongly favors a high-scoring meeting, but there are some factors that have been overlooked to make Under 3.5 Goals a very good value bet.
Such a meeting between two of the best teams in the MLS this season would scream tons of goals. However, track records of similar games this season including the two teams at hand suggest otherwise.
When The Fire met with Nashville at this stadium, the other top team in the Eastern Conference, only one goal was recorded. Crucially, Inter Miami have also faced Nashville twice, one finishing with two goals, the other zero. This leads us to conclude that Under 3.5 Goals is a very good bet.

Our Inter Miami vs Chicago Fire Prediction
In addition to those above, two further examples include two goals when the home side met with both Real Salt Lake and New England Revolution this season, as well as failing to score against LAFC. In contrast to facing lesser teams in the league, the trend of similar fixtures shows that the more challenging games, those with more at stake, tend to be more reserved.
What’s more, we must factor in that it is highly unlikely that two of interim manager Hoyos’ best men, Messi and De Paul, will return from the World Cup for this first game back. The last time both were missing from the squad, the game finished goalless, which is very interesting.
Our Inter Miami vs Chicago Fire Pick: Under 3.5 Goals.
