Inter Miami hold a strong recent head-to-head edge and return home aiming to tighten their grip on the upper reaches of the Eastern Conference. Javier Mascherano's side have enough firepower to dominate proceedings, making a multi-goal margin well within reach against a struggling DC United backline. However, Miami's tendency to leak goals—conceding seven across their last five matches—means the visitors could easily find the net and keep this contest competitive.
