Inter Miami team news and form: Javier Mascherano won’t change a thing
The fact that key shot-stopper Drake Callender is injured further benefits our top Inter Miami vs Cincinnati prediction. We believe coach Mascherano will rely on veteran goalkeeper Oscar Ustari, but we aren’t sure that the 39-year-old Mexican will be able to keep a clean sheet against Noonan’s troops.
Predicted lineup: Novo (GK), Allen, Falcon, Lujan, Weigandt, Allende, Redondo, Busquets, Segovia, Suarez & Picault

Player to watch: Luis Suarez
The Uruguayan goalscoring legend is far from his best days. However, despite his rather slow goalscoring pace this season, he did supply his fellow teammates with 10 MLS assists, making him one of the top creators in the league right now.

Suarez with a difficult task
After refusing to partake in the MLS All-Star game a few days ago, Lionel Messi received a one-match ban, meaning he won't take part in the game against Cincinnati this week. It's up to Suarez to go out there, fill in the gaps in the attack and prove our key Inter Miami vs Cincinnati prediction correct.
