Inter Milan vs Atalanta Prediction: Serie A Match on 28.02.2024

Football fans have a break from the Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League fixtures, but that doesn’t mean it’s a quiet midweek. Plenty is going on across Europe, with the continent’s most famous leagues and competitions included on the schedule. Wednesday brings two games from the top tier of Italian football as Sassuolo hosts Napoli and Inter Milan hosts Atalanta in the focus of this article.

Inter Milan enjoys the home advantage over a capable opponent. They plan to make it count and secure three valuable points that would move them a step closer to lifting another Serie A title. Atalanta is chasing an away win that could lift them back into the top four, reigniting their hopes of securing a Champions League finish. Inter won by the odd one in a five-goal thriller when Atalanta was last at this venue, and armchair fans hope for something similar with plenty of goals and even more talking points.

Milan leads the way

Inter Milan sits on top of the Italian Serie A after 25 games played, and it’s looking increasingly likely they’ll remain there and win the title at a canter. They set up for this latest game with their stats for the season showing 21 wins, three draws, and just one defeat, with 63 goals scored and only a dozen conceded. When taking a closer look at those numbers, we note Inter Milan has, by far, the best attack and defece in the league.

Enjoying an extended winning run, we last saw Inter Milan in action on Sunday when beating Lecce 4-0 on the road in what was a real statement of intent from the team. The pace-setters took the lead early in that game and didn’t look back, putting on a show of strength for their fans while firing a warning shot to Juventus in second place with the Old Lady already nine points behind after winning one of their last five.

Visitors back in the mix

It has been a challenging season for followers of Atalanta, with the team suffering a difficult start to the campaign and a slow end to 2023. Atalanta is a team we’re used to seeing push hard for the prize places, and they haven’t looked out of place in recent Champions League outings. Will they recover and secure a top-four finish and pass into UEFA’s elite tournament next season? That remains to be seen, but they are certainly heading in the right direction.

Atalanta arrives for this game on the back of an impressive unbeaten run where they have won four and drawn one of their last five, collecting 13 of the 15 points available. The spare draw in that purple patch came at the weekend when Atalanta were held to a 1-1 draw in this part of the country by AC Milan on Sunday. Milan took the lead inside three minutes but bounced back to secure a draw thanks to a late goal from Koopmeiners.

Inter Milan vs Atalanta prediction

Here we have a meeting of two teams showing great recent form, with both clubs needing the win for different reasons. Inter Milan targets a victory that would further strengthen their chances of winning the league, while Atalanta targets a victory that would keep them in the running for a place in next season’s Champions League.

Wednesday will be the second time Inter Milan and Atalanta have met this season following a 2-1 victory for Inter on the road in November when they led 2-0, and the beaten team finished with ten men. Milan enjoys the backing of a loyal support, and that should make all the difference in what should be a competitive contest.
