Since the end of last year's World Cup he has been red-hot, going 178-169-8 for a profit of $1,891 for $100 bettors.

Eimer knows that Inter Miami have been unbeatable since Messi's arrival. The team has played eight matches since he got to South Florida and has five wins and three draws. In each of those draws, Miami advanced after a penalty kick shootout. By contrast, prior to Messi joining the team, Miami had just two wins in their previous 13 matches.

But Eimer also has taken into account that New York will be well rested entering Saturday's match. The Red Bulls have played only once since Aug. 8, a 1-0 victory over DC United on Sunday. They will face an Inter Miami team that has played four times over that same time frame. That includes a penalty-shootout victory over FC Cincinnati in U.S. Open Cup play on Wednesday night.

For Saturday, Eimer has taken an in-depth look at the Inter Miami vs. Red Bulls matchup and locked in his picks.
