On Wednesday evening, the Inter Miami boys continued their assault on the top of the Eastern Conference table, securing a second lot of three points on the spin, moving within two points of league leaders Nashville SC. They now host the Portland Timbers. The visitors couldn't get over the line in the week, but they didn't lose, avoiding defeat in each of their last two, scoring lots of goals in the process.
Going to Nu Stadium won't be easy, but the visitors certainly pack a punch, especially if Kevin Kelsy, who has scored four golas in his last four appearances, continues to be at his best. Ultimately, the smartest move may just be betting on Portland's in-form forward to notch against an Inter Miami side that we know will give chances away, even at home.

Our Inter Miami vs Portland Timbers Prediction
Yes, the hosts are in fabulous offensive form, and they will likely hurt a Timbers team that doesn't exactly specialize in defensive solidity on the road, but can they keep it tight themselves? Almost certainly not. Saturday's hosts have given lots away of late, both home and away, so it's more than reasonable to expect someone like the hugely in-form Kevin Kelsy to thrive in the final third at Nu Stadium.
Kelsy notched his third goal in two games during the week, plus he's often at his best on the break, meaning that he should find Saturday's playing conditions favorable.
Our Inter Miami vs Portland Timbers Pick: Kevin Kelsy to Score.
