Inter Miami vs Toronto FC: Predictions, Picks, Odds & Lineups

Inter Miami host Toronto FC at Miami Freedom Park on Saturday, August 22 (7:30 PM ET / 6:30 PM CT / 4:30 PM PT).

There’s no fresh injury news out of either camp, so both sides should be able to field their key men. For Inter Miami, that means Lionel Messi, who has twelve goals and forty-three chances created this season, lining up alongside Luis Suárez, who has scored ten times, and Germán Berterame, who has added seven goals of his own. Toronto FC will lean on Dániel Sallói, their leading scorer with four goals from forty shots, and Joshua Sargent, who has chipped in three.
