Inter Miami vs. Charlotte Betting Picks: Lionel Messi to carry on scoring in the Cup

Inter Miami are back in action again this weekend and Lionel Messi is set to put on another masterclass for his new club. Inter Miami CF take on Charlotte FC in the Leagues Cup and we’ll be looking through the betting market for our best bets for this Quarter-Final clash.

It seems crazy to not be backing Messi to score at this point. Lionel Messi's start to life in America could not have gone any better. He stamped his authority on the league immediately in his first game as he came on as a substitute and scored the 94th minute winning goal from a free-kick.

Since that game against Cruz Azul he has scored a brace in all of his other games bringing his total goals up to seven in four games.

Well, we're going again with the Messi brace at +190 with Fanduel. The price is significantly shorter than the last game but if it keeps winning, it makes sense. 

Messi was already regarded as the greatest of all time and his goal-scoring prowess has not dropped since he joined the MLS. Right now the standard is just not good enough for Messi and he is having a field day every time he steps onto American soil. He’s a short price to score for a reason and don’t be surprised to see him scoring again.

The only thing Messi is yet to do in the MLS is score a hat-trick and he’s come agonisingly close three times with him scoring a double on three separate occasions. He could have secured his hat-trick had he taken a penalty, but gave it to his teammate to let him get on the scoresheet.

Only one player in history has scored more hat-tricks than Lionel Messi and that’s Cristiano Ronaldo with 62 hat-tricks on his record. Lionel Messi is not far off with 57 and we’re backing him to get another to add to his total at +750.
