San Miguelito vs Inter Miami Prediction
San Miguelito have made a two-game unbeaten start to their new league campaign. They are technically the hosts, with the game set to be played in Panama. La Academia are likely to place more emphasis on their upcoming trip to Arabe Unido in their league, although the opportunity to square off against Lionel Messi and co. could see their players up the ante.
Inter Miami have not been at their best in pre-season, having drawn both games played so far. Nevertheless, manager Javier Mascherano has an assortment of talent to call upon. The 40-year-old has several of his former Barcelona teammates under his tutelage but has not overseen a victory since his appointment, albeit in friendlies.
We are backing Inter Miami to claim a comfortable victory with goals at both ends.
