Miami Squeaks Past Montréal 1-0 in Snoozefest That Torpedoes Over Bet

Well, that was ugly. Inter Miami limped to a 1-0 road win over CF Montréal in a match that had all the attacking fireworks of a wet firecracker. One goal. Total. In a game DarkHorse AI projected to sail over 3.5 goals based on Miami's red-hot offense and Montréal's tissue-paper backline, we got a defensive stalemate that missed by a country mile.

Miami came in averaging four goals per game over their previous five matches, armed with elite xG numbers and a five-game win streak. Montréal had been leaking goals like a rusty bucket. On paper, this was supposed to be a track meet. Instead, both attacks went missing, and we got ninety minutes of midfield slog punctuated by one solitary finish.

Credit where it's due: Miami extended their win streak to six, and three points on the road is three points. But let's be honest—this was survival mode, not the offensive clinic the data suggested. Whether Montréal tightened up defensively or Miami just had an off night, the result is the same: a brutal miss on the over. Sometimes the numbers lie, or at least take the night off. This was one of those nights.
