Match Stats

Inter Miami are set to travel to the BC Arena to face Vancouver Whitecaps in their next game in the MLS. Heading into the encounter, Vancouver are seventh in the Western Conference while Miami top the Eastern. In the run up to this game, both sides had dramatic endings in their previous MLS matches. Hosts Vancouver needed a stoppage time penalty goal to draw 1-1 with Seattle Sounders. Right after that they suffered a 1-0 loss to Cavalry in the Canadian Championship to extend their inconsistent start to the season. That defeat further marked a third game in the last four in which they failed to score. The Canadian side enters this game on just a win in the last seven matches and failed to score in four of the last six. Playing at home hasn’t come with the best results in recent matches; they have no win in the last three. Their eight home matches this season have returned just two wins, and in the last two, the Whitecaps failed to score.


Inter Miami on their part, carry into this game a good run since their last defeat, early in April. In their last seven matches, Tata Martino’s side is unbeaten, winning six times in that run. Inter Miami had their fair share of late drama, needing Leonardo Campana’s 90th minute goal to secure a 1-0 win over DC United. That result marked a second straight clean sheet for Inter Miami. The win meant they haven't lost since falling 3-1 to Monterrey in the Concacaf Champions League. It was also their ninth unbeaten game since losing 4-0 to New York Red Bulls in March. Inter Miami have failed to score in just two of their league matches this season and come here as favorites. They lead in the Eastern Conference though by a point, and have played a game more. It thus follows that they’ll be inspired to go for three points here to stay top. Three wins in their last four away league matches should inspire confidence in the visitors.
