Charlotte vs Inter Miami preview
This match will take place on 03/07/2024 at Bank of America Stadium. Kick off will be at 19:30 EST.
This is a big game for Dean Smith and his Charlotte FC boys. Sure, they’re up against the current Eastern Conference leaders, which is a challenge, make no mistake about that, but this is an Inter Miami side that is currently without Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, both of whom are on international duty.
Therefore, the hosts will be looking to take advantage, and why not? After all, this is a Charlotte team that can tussle with anybody in their own backyard. Only two Eastern Conference teams have a better home record than Charlotte, who’ve picked up some encouraging home wins this term.
As for Inter Miami, well, we all know the threat that this star-studded team carries, and even without their two key men, they’ve got quality.
The visitors have won each of their last three games, but in their last two without Messi and Suarez, they’ve looked a little shaky and have been far from convincing. What’s more, even when they have that talismanic duo, they still look shaky at the back, so the hosts probably don’t have much to fear here.
Charlotte vs Inter Miami picks
Ahead of this Charlotte vs Inter Miami clash, looking at the early lines, one pick appeals more than all else.
Charlotte Over 1.5 Team Total Goals
To be honest, there likely is a smidgen of value in betting on the hosts to come out on top here, but for my money, the greater value lies with them notching at least two goals.
This is an Inter Miami side that is far from at its strongest, with both Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez missing, while it is also a Inter Miami side that is very open at the back, so this must go down as a huge chance for Dean Smith’s men to enjoy themselves offensively.
The visitors haven’t conceded multiple goals for a while, but they are without a clean sheet in six games now, while they gave up lots of chances away to Nashville last time out. The same can be said for their home game against Columbus prior to that.
Factor in that Smith’s men have plenty of offensive quality and it’s not too difficult to conclude that home goals are a little more likely than the early odds suggest. After all, this is a Charlotte side that has scored two or more in three of their last five, including last time out at home.
