Score prediction

Javier Mascherano may use this game against Nashville SC as an opportunity to experiment with new defensive tactics ahead of the playoffs. The score on this game will not affect Inter Miami’s participation in the postseason; they have clinched and secured their spot.

However, Nashville SC must win to secure a spot and not battle in the elimination rounds prior to the round of 16. That’s why the Coyotes will try to be vertical in offense to score the most goals possible to avoid the final series playoffs
