Preview a Pdf in Mac safari without downloading it.

I am trying to figure out how in mac safari, can I just preview pdf. Whenever I click the link, it automatically downloads. How to prevent that? Most answers I see online is on " how to not AUTOMATICALLY OPEN a pdf after downloading."- That is not what I'm looking for. Thanks

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.1
