Houston Dynamo vs Inter Miami Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The hosts emerged victorious in their last outing against the Herons.

Houston Dynamo are all set to host Inter Miami in a Major League Soccer 2025 fixture. The hosts are in 10th place in the Western Conference table after losing their opening game of the MLS 2025 season. Inter Miami are at the ninth place after ending their initial league game as a draw.

Although Houston Dynamo defeated Inter Miami in their last meeting, they might be slightly low on confidence as they failed to secure any points in their opening MLS match of the new season. Houston Dynamo fell prey to FC Dallas. They will be at home once again, which they can use to their advantage.

Lionel Messi and Co. dropped points in their opening MLS 2025 match. Inter Miami held New York City to a draw after Telasco Segovia scored a late goal. The Herons in their very next fixture took down Sporting KC dominatingly to qualify for the CONCACAF Champions Cup round of 16. They will be looking to use the momentum here.

Players to Watch

Amine Bassi (Houston Dynamo)

The 27-year-old Moroccan midfielder was the sole goal scorer for Houston Dynamo in their last fixture. Although they lost the match, Amine Bassi left his mark by scoring the goal. He is going to play a vital role for the hosts as he can control the midfield well and can also go on to score goals.

Lionel Messi (Inter Miami)

Although the Argentine forward has scored a couple of goals in the last three matches for Inter Miami across all competitions, Lionel Messi is yet to open his account in MLS 2025. With his playmaking skills, he can surely help his teammates. The player is still very capable of scoring goals, which makes him dangerous for opponents.
