Atletico Madrid
Contents
- Competition: Champions League
- Date: Tuesday, 20th February 2024
- Kickoff: 20:00 UTC / 21:00 CET
- Venue: Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (San Siro) (Milan)
Inter and Atletico Madrid may not be top favorites like Manchester City or Real Madrid to win the Champions League trophy, but both teams aim to make it to at least the quarterfinals. The game between these two teams could prove to be the most fascinating in this round.
This season, Inter lacks a suitable challenger in Serie A. Holding a ten-point lead over the next team, it’s almost guaranteed they’ll add another title to their collection. Inter Milan is currently on a winning streak, having triumphed in their last eight matches across all competitions. In their most recent match, they defeated Salernitana 4-0 on their home ground. Inter had multiple opportunities to score, leaving no question that they would secure all three points.
Atletico Madrid continues to have a solid run this year. Although they may not be strong enough to vie for the La Liga title, Diego Simeone’s team is expected to secure another top-four finish in Spain’s most competitive league. Prior to their game against Inter, Atletico Madrid was going through a three-game winless streak, but this was disrupted when Simeone’s squad secured a 5-0 victory against Las Palmas in their last match. This was precisely the boost that Atletico Madrid needed at this point in time.
Inter vs Atletico Madrid pick: Inter to win
Currently, Inter is one of the most successful teams in Europe, boasting a streak of eight consecutive wins with a goal difference of 21:4. Conversely, Atletico Madrid is expected to adopt a defensive approach in the first leg, aiming for a draw. Given the current form, Inter seems to be the stronger team and is therefore predicted to triumph over Diego Simeone’s side.
Inter team news
At present, head coach Simone Inzaghi has nearly a complete squad. The only players expected to be absent from the game against Atletico Madrid are Francesco Acerbi and Juan Cuadrado. Stefano Sensi was absent from the game against Salernitana due to sickness, however, he is expected to be recovered by Tuesday.

Atletico Madrid team news
Atletico Madrid are facing increased injury troubles, with Vitolo, Cesar Azpilicueta, Gabriel Paulista, Thomas Lemar, and Alvaro Morata all unavailable for the Tuesday game against Inter.
