Inter Milan vs Atalanta

Inter Milan and Atalanta are set to trade tackles at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in an exciting Serie A fixture.

Reigning champions Inter have picked up where they left off last season, going unbeaten in their opening five Serie A fixtures this term (W4, D1) as they head into proceedings trailing top-placed Napoli by just two points. Despite selling headline performer Romelu Lukaku to Chelsea in the summer, Simone Inzaghi’s men have been nothing short of outstanding in the up top this season, netting 18 Serie A goals in total, on an average of 3.6 goals per match. Indeed, except for a 2-2 away draw with Sampdoria on Matchday 3, the ‘Nerazzurri’ have bagged 3+ goals in their remaining four league outings in 2021/22 so far. Particularly prolific beyond half-time, Inter take the field as the only side in Italy’s top-flight to have scored 10+ second-half league goals this season (11).

In the meantime, the visitors have enjoyed a slight upturn in form in the build-up to this fixture, going from two successive Serie A games without a victory (D1, L1) to back-to-back one-goal margin triumphs. Indeed, each of Atalanta’s three top-flight wins this season have arrived by a single-goal margin, with two seeing ‘La Dea’ break the deadlock before half-time. Despite finishing as the most prolific Italian team in the last three Serie A campaigns, Gian Piero Gasperini’s men have drawn a blank in three of their previous four league visits to Giuseppe Meazza (D2, L2). Moreover, Atalanta haven’t claimed a single victory in their last seven Serie A H2Hs on hostile turf (D2, L5), scoring a total of two goals across those meetings. If they do manage to defy their ‘Giuseppe Meazza jinx’ this time around, Atalanta would equal their highest points tally at this stage of a Serie A campaign.
