St. Louis City vs Inter Miami Prediction & Pick

There really isn't a good reason to believe in an upset this weekend. St. Louis is the Western Conference's top team while Miami is tied for the bottom spot in MLS. Another indication of the skill gap is the fact that St. Louis boasts a plus-13 goal differential, whereas Miami sits at a minus-11.

Miami has also been putrid away from home this season, dropping eight of 10 previous road matchups. At the same time, St. Louis has outscored its last six opponents at CityPark 14-5 on aggregate while picking up four victories over that span.

At the end of the day, St. Louis is going to bully Miami on both sides of the pitch before earning its 13th win of the season.

Final Score Prediction: St. Louis: 3 | Miami: 0

St. Louis City vs Inter Miami Best Bet

As the clear-cut better club, St. Louis should be able to cover the spread on Saturday night. First of all, each of St. Louis' last four wins came by multi-goal margins. Secondly, Miami owns a minus-1.7 average scoring margin in its last four road outings, losing two by multiple goals during that span.

With St. Louis owning one of the best offenses in MLS and Miami's defense being terrible, back the home team to win by a sizeable margin.

Bet: St. Louis -1 (+160)
