Inter Miami vs New York Red Bulls Prediction and Betting Tips | May 31st 2023
New York Red Bulls will be looking to pick up their first away win of the season when they visit the DRV PNK Stadium to face Inter Miami on Wednesday. The hosts head into the midweek clash on a run of three consecutive MLS defeats and will set out to end this poor run of form.
Inter Miami suffered a third consecutive league defeat on Saturday as they were beaten 1-0 by CF Montreal at the Saputo Stadium.
Despite their recent struggles, Phil Neville’s men booked a place in the US Open Cup on May 23 as they picked up a 2-1 victory over Nashville.
Following their loss to Montreal, Inter Miami remain rooted to the bottom of the Eastern Conference table, having picked up just 15 points from their opening 14 matches.
Elsewhere, New York Red Bulls were condemned to a second defeat on the spin last time out as they were beaten 1-0 by 10-man Seattle Sounders.
Prior to that, Troy Lesesne’s men saw their four-match unbeaten run come to an end courtesy of a penalty-shootout loss to FC Cincinnati in the US Open Cup semi-finals last Tuesday.
With 16 points from 15 matches, New York Red Bulls are currently 13th in the Eastern Conference standings but could move level with eighth-placed DC United with a win on Wednesday.
