After the New Year, Atalanta broke its winless streak. On January 9, the team defeated Udinese away (2-6).

Simone Inzaghi's team leads the Italian championship with 49 points after 20 matches. Inter gained 15 victories and four draws and suffered only one defeat. Now this club is the main contender for the league title. The Nerazzurri achieved ten victories and three draws in the last 13 rounds. Thanks to such a stable pace, they are one point ahead of AC Milan, who played one round more. On January 12, Internazionale won the 1st trophy in the current season — the Italian Super Cup. The Black and Blues defeated Juventus in a home match (2-1). Regulation time ended with a score of 1-1, and in the 121st minute, Alexis Sanchez took advantage of the visitors' mistake in defense and scored the winning goal.
In the current championship, Atalanta and Inter have already crossed paths in Milan on September 25. The match at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza ended in a 2-2 draw. Lautaro Martinez and Edin Dzeko scored for the home team, while Ruslan Malinovskyi and Rafael Toloi scored for the visitors. As for the upcoming match, the chances of the current titleholders are higher. The Milanese have dominated Serie A in recent weeks. They have won seven away games and suffered only one defeat in ten rounds. The only problem for Inzaghi's coaching staff will be the physical readiness of the team after a tense confrontation with Juventus. In recent matches, Atalanta has shown that it is gradually overcoming the decline in results. However, the Goddess had no strong opponents. Another circumstance against Atalanta is the poor statistics of home matches. In nine home rounds of Serie A, the men of Gasperini players beat only Sassuolo (2-1), Spezia (5-2), and Venezia (4-0). Inter is much more powerful than these teams, and it will have more chances of gaining victory at Gewiss Stadium.
Prediction for the match: Inter to win with 0.0 handicap
