Inter vs Atalanta prediction 28.02.2024

• Competition: Serie A
• Date: Wednesday, 28th February 2024
• Kickoff: 19:45 UTC / 20:45 CET
• Venue: Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (San Siro) (Milan)

Inter is performing exceptionally in the current season. They had a disappointing performance in the Serie A last year but excelled in the Cup competitions, winning the Coppa Italia and making it to the Champions League Finals. While they won’t be able to duplicate their Cup success this year due to being eliminated by Bologna, they were still dominant in that match, just unfortunate. However, in the Serie A, the Nerazzurri appear to be invincible, holding a nine-point lead over second-placed Juventus while still having a game in hand. Inter is also impressive in the UCL, having won the first leg of the knockout stage against Atletico Madrid.

In recent years, Atalanta has regularly been one of the top five teams in Serie A. This year, they are performing excellently in all competitions, reaching the Semi-Finals of the Coppa Italia and the 1/8 Finals of the Europa League. They currently stand at 5th place in Serie A, just two points shy of the coveted 4th place. Although they have played one game less than Bologna, who currently occupy the 4th position, a potential victory over Inter could catapult them into a Champions League spot.

Inter vs Atalanta pick: Inter to win

At this point, Inter appears invincible. They’ve had an impressive run, winning 21 out of 25 Serie A games &— that’s an 84% success rate! Recently, their performance has been on an upward trajectory, with ten consecutive wins. They’ve gone head to head against some strong teams such as Atletico Madrid, Roma, Juventus, Fiorentina, Napoli, Lazio, among others. Their offensive prowess has been consistently superb throughout the season, and their defensive play during this stretch was nothing short of extraordinary, highlighted by seven clean sheets.

There’s no question that Atalanta has been performing exceptionally well, remaining undefeated in their last ten matches and securing victories eight times. Yet, their performance against AC Milan, which ended in a 1:1 draw, clearly revealed their shortcomings. They were fortunate to achieve a favorable outcome. Consequently, we are skeptical of their ability to escape defeat when playing away against an on-form Inter.

In the most recent head-to-head match, Inter triumphed with a 2:1 victory at Gewiss Stadium. Moreover, Inter has secured victories in the last four head-to-head matches. Considering these factors and previous head-to-head games, we are confident that Inter is poised to clinch their 11th consecutive win.
