FC Cincinnati won its first match against Inter Miami this season, a 3-1 home victory on March 19. Miami had won each of the previous four MLS meetings between the sides, including the two games in Miami by a combined score of 7-2.
Inter Miami has won six of its last eight home matches (D1 L1) after opening the season winless in three straight at home (D1 L2). Since the beginning of April, only New York City FC (24 points) has collected more points at home than Miami (19).
Cincinnati drew for the sixth time in its last eight matches (W1 L1), a run that came after drawing one of its previous 30 league games (W7 L22). Cincinnati’s form is in the eye of the beholder, having lost only one of its last eight games but having won just one of its last 10.
Teams rarely leave DRV PNK Stadium goalless, with Miami keeping just one clean sheet and being shut out only once in its last 10 home MLS matches. Miami has scored in each of its last nine home matches, equaling the longest such streak in the club’s MLS history (Sep 2020 – May 2021).
Brandon Vázquez’s equalizing goal against Nashville on Saturday was his sixth headed goal of the season, two more than any other MLS player. Vázquez is the only FC Cincinnati player to score with a header this season as no Cincinnati player other than Vázquez has scored a headed goal since May 2021.
