Having suffered defeats in their last outings, both Atalanta and Inter Milan are out for wins, even if it’s for different reasons.
Inter Milan saw their perfect record to win the Scudetto suffer a dent as AC Milan beat them 1-0; the Nerazzurri are now after a win to continue their perfect record. Before losing to AC Milan, they had gone unbeaten in the league since November.
Atalanta, on the other hand, suffered a heavy loss in their UCL clash against Bayern Munich. They were hammered 6-1 by a ruthless Bayern Munich and they need a win to lift their spirits ahead of the return leg in Munich.
Team News
Inter’s injury list is still headlined by inspirational captain Lautaro Martinez, who leads the way in Serie A’s Capocannoniere rankings this season. After missing out on a derby clash with his old club, Hakan Calhanoglu could be ready to return, but ex-Atalanta defender Alessandro Bastoni is a minor doubt.
On the other end, Palladino hopes to welcome Ederson back from a muscular injury, but he will still be missing two key players as Raspadori and Charles De Ketelaere have only just resumed training.
