Inter Miami vs New York City FC Prediction

Inter Miami will aim to get the first win in their short spell as a club. Much will be expected from attacking midfielder Rodolfo Pizarro, who joined the club from Monterrey and is a Mexico international. Pizarro scored the first goal in the club's history and the 26-year old looks like a good acquisition.
