MLS – Columbus Crew to face Inter Miami on Match-day 39

Next Thursday at 2:30am GMT, on matchday 39 of the MLS, we will see Columbus play Inter at MAPFRE Stadium.

Columbus, currently sitting fifth, host seventh placed Inter on Thursday.

Columbus Crew face his opponents, equal on points, with both keen to make progress

Columbus have been inconsistent in their previous two games, drawing 2-2 at Cincinnati and 2-2 at Atlanta United, so a win in this fixture must be the focus.

Also, a draw statistic of eight in 13 games is not all bad, but unfortunately will not bring the success Caleb Porter’s men wishes for ultimately. Their position is fifth in the League and they have 36 points, that is, 0W, 0L and 0D.

When Columbus host Inter, they will do so on the back of five victories, four draws, and four defeats on their own ground.

Victory for Columbus Crew would take their points tally to 39 so far this season.

Inter Miami face their opponents with equal points, it will likely be a thrilling encounter

Following two straight wins for Inter in their most recent games, they will be keen to continue that form going into this fixture.

Also, Inter will be hopeful of shaking off the poor form that has seen them lose one game this MLS season. With 36 points, they currently sit seventh in the League. The breakdown for the team’s record is 0 wins, 0 losses and 0 draws.

It must be a worrying prospect for Inter to go back on the road, with a bud run of away performances under their belt this season. So far they have only secured two wins, three darts, and eight losses to the home team.

A win in this fixture, would take Inter Miami’s points from 36 to 39, so far this season.

Further, Inter are unbeaten in their last one game played at MAPFRE Stadium against Columbus. The last time they played each other in this competition Columbus Crew secured a 4-0 home win.
