Preview: Toronto FC vs Inter Miami prediction, odds, where to watch, time | MLS 2026
The Herons are unbeaten in their last five fixtures against the Reds.
Toronto FC are now going to battle it out against Inter Miami CF for their round 12 fixture of the 2026 Major League Soccer (MLS). This will be an entertaining outing between these clubs, taking place at the BMO Field.
The Reds are on a poor run of form at the moment. They have only secured three wins in 11 games and are in eighth place on the Eastern Conference MLS points table. Robin Fraser’s men are coming in after facing a 1-3 loss in their Canadian Championship game against Atletico Ottawa.
Their previous league fixture ended in a 1-1 draw against the San Jose Earthquakes. Toronto FC will now be at home for their upcoming fixture, but they will need to work on their strategy to secure three points.
The Herons are coming in after facing a 3-4 loss at the hands of Orlando City in their previous encounter. The Guillermo Hoyos-led side had a comfortable lead, but gave it all away because of poor defending.
Inter Miami will be eager to return to winning ways now. They have secured five wins in 11 games and are placed third on the Major League Soccer points table of the Eastern Conference. Lionel Messi and company will be away from home for their next outing, and it can become a tough one for them.
