Inter Milan vs Atalanta – Betting Preview
This season, Inter has already added one title to their resume. In Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, earlier this month, they defeated AC Milan 3-0 to win the Italian Super Cup!
They won the Coppa Italia last year to earn their spot in the Super Cup, and they hope to repeat as champions of the cup competition like they did in the 2009–10 and 2010–11 seasons.
Inter Milan Preview
Following an unexpected loss to Empoli, Simone Inzaghi’s team picked up a win last weekend, defeating Cremonese by a score of 2-1 courtesy to a brace from Lautaro Martinez.
The victory moved Inter into second place, but with 13 points separating them from Napoli, Serie A top team, they will realise that the Coppa Italia and the Champions League represent their best chances of bringing home more hardware this season.
Inter has previously defeated Atalanta this season, winning 3-2 on the road when the two teams faced off in November. Having advanced to the Coppa Italia’s last four in each of the last three seasons, Inter will be optimistic that they can secure a spot in the tournament’s semifinals.
Atalanta Preview
Atalanta finished 2022 with four losses in five games, but they have since found their greatest form, going on a six-game unbeaten streak in all competitions.
In those six games, which they have won four and tied two, Gian Piero Gasperini’s team has scored an impressive 22 goals.
Joakim Maehle and Ademola Lookman’s goals helped La Dea defeat Sampdoria 2-0 at home over the weekend, giving them their first shutout since October.
Atalanta is now in a strong position in fourth place, but they will put their pursuit of Champions League qualification on wait in order to concentrate on the Coppa Italia, where they hope to win the trophy once more after first taking it home in 1963.
Atalanta has advanced to the semifinals in three of the previous five seasons, despite being eliminated by Fiorentina at the quarterfinal stage last year.
