Inter Milan vs Atalanta Match Analysis
In a bid to widen their nine-point lead at the summit of Serie A, Inter Milan, contenders for the title, will face Atalanta BC at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on Wednesday evening.
Match Preview
Inter Milan maintained their flawless record in 2024 by convincingly defeating Lecce 4-0 away on Sunday, positioning themselves favorably for a second Scudetto in four seasons.
Having lost just one of their 25 Serie A matches this season, Inter has both scored the most goals (61) and conceded the fewest (12) in the league.
Another win on Wednesday would push them 12 points ahead of second-placed Juventus with 13 games remaining.
Simone Inzaghi’s team aims to secure a seventh consecutive Serie A triumph at the start of a calendar year for the first time in club history as they prepare to face Atalanta, a team they have frequently dominated in recent years.
Despite Atalanta’s impressive 10-game unbeaten streak in 2024 across all competitions, garnering 17 points from seven Serie A matches, they are not to be underestimated on Wednesday.
After finishing fifth in Serie A last season, Gian Piero Gasperini’s squad currently occupies the same position after 25 matches this season, trailing surprise package Bologna by only two points in fourth place.
Although Atalanta boasts one of the best home records in the league this season, their away performances have been less consistent, with four wins, three draws, and five losses in 12 Serie A away matches, winning only one of their last six encounters.
