Why Bet on Houston Dynamo versus Inter Miami
Few teams in Major League Soccer are as hot as Houston Dynamo. The Dynamo head into this off a loss, yes, but Houston beat Vancouver 4-1 on Sep 20 in the game before.
Also, the loss happened versus Sporting Kansas City on Sep 23. There’s no way head coach Ben Olsen was going to allow the Orange Crush to suffer debilitating injuries with the U.S. Open Cup Final on the horizon.
Outside of Messi, Houston’s roster stacks up well agianst Inter M’s and Olsen is pulling all the right moves for a U.S. Open Cup Final victory.

Houston Dynamo vs Inter Miami Final Betting Analysis
Sometimes, it makes sense to study betting lines and make a wagering decision based solely on the odds. Inter Miami versus Houston Dynamo is one of those games.
Even if Messi plays, Inter M is an underlay. For sure, MLS squads that play on their pitch have an advantage, but the soccer odds suggest Inter Miami gets it done without issue and that won’t be the case.
Ben Olsen might be the best head coach and manager in Major League Soccer. The man knows how to set up his attack and defense to make life difficult for any team.
Houston’s master strategist will have two plans heading into Wednesday night. One will be for if Messi plays. The other will be for if Lionel sits on the bench. Either way, the Dynamo will keep Miami from scoring more than a goal.
But although Houston will play a great match, it doesn’t mean they win this in regulation. Inter Miami still has the overall better roster even without Messi. Also, this happens on Inter M’s grass. Instead of backing a team to win in regulation, throwing money behind the draw is the play.
