PSG vs Inter Miami Match Preview
PSG won two games and suffered one defeat in Group B of the Club World Cup. They outscored Atletico Madrid and Seattle Sounders by a combined margin of 6-0, but lost 1-0 to Brazilian club Botafogo. While the loss to Botafogo was a surprise, PSG still only allowed one goal during group play. They will look to prove that their defense is the best in the world again here by limiting Messi’s impact on this match.
Inter Miami navigated a dramatic Group A, overcoming Portugal’s Porto 2‑1, drawing 2‑2 with Brazil’s Palmeiras, and sharing the points 0‑0 with Egypt’s Al Ahly. Their momentum is undeniable, going unbeaten in six straight, scoring 16 goals in that span, though their defense has shown susceptibility, shipping 9 goals in those 6 recent outings.
Sunday’s game will be a theatrical reunion. Messi, Suarez, Busquets, and Alba reunite under Javier Mascherano against Luis Enrique’s PSG. However, narrative may run secondary to form, as PSG’s young core of Barcola, Vitinha, and Doue have stepped up, delivering energy and freshness that could disrupt Miami’s aging spine.

PSG vs Inter Miami Prediction
This is Paris’ game to lose. They boast superior squad depth, sharper form, and a defense that’s proven stubborn. Inter Miami carries star power but lacks consistency at the back. Still, their attack featuring Messi and Suarez can hurt any team on their day, making BTTS a viable wager.
Expect PSG to dominate possession and control play. Inter Miami will look to break quickly, targeting space in behind. The turning point could be PSG’s high-paced press. If Miami can withstand early pressure, they stand a chance. But PSG’s quality in the final third and set pieces should see them through with a two‑goal cushion. I will take PSG to advance to the quarterfinals at the expense of a Miami side playing on home soil.
