PSG don’t have any new injuries, as Ousmane Dembele is the only doubtful player for this game.
Inter Miami have had a great group stage run as underdogs, and they were arguably the best-performing team, even though they finished second behind Palmeiras. They are also 6th in the MLS Eastern Conference, despite not playing the previous three rounds.
Inter Miami are coming off a thrilling 2-2 draw with Palmeiras in the Club World Cup.

Inter Miami have shown what they are capable of in this tournament so far, as they have a very dangerous attacking duo in Leo Messi and Luis Suarez, especially when the Uruguayan is in good form. Paris Saint-Germain have shown some vulnerability in their match against Botafogo, losing 1-0 as 1.20 (1/5) favorites, so maybe the fatigue of playing a lot of games after reaching the UCL final is starting to hit them.
The bookies for the football Club World Cup are giving us some enticing odds on Inter here. They are playing at home and will put in their best effort, so even if they don’t win, they are unlikely to lose by three goals.

Inter Miami scored four goals in their last two games after a scoreless draw in their opening game, while Paris Saint-Germain scored six goals in the tournament so far, so both teams are in great form offensively. The Herons’ matches often feature goals from both sides, as both teams have scored in 10 of the last 12 Inter Miami matches.

Lionel Messi has one goal in the tournament so far, but he is still playing some great football and is the best player on the team. The Argentinian is back to face his former club, so he will be motivated to score or at least make an assist in this game, and we usually don’t get such high odds for Messi to get a goal contribution, so there’s a lot of value in this pick.
PSG have the better value in this game with enticing odds, and we expect them to get a positive result. Make sure you use our 2025 PSG vs Inter Miami betting predictions and bet them on the best bookmakers in Europe to have more fun watching the game.
