Inter take on the visitors Atalanta in the postponed round 21 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Wednesday, February 28th at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (San Siro) (Milan).
Inter are performing exceptionally well in this competition. Nerazzurri, of course, are not flawless. For example, they managed to lose at home to Bologna – thus, the team was eliminated from the cup, although in both previous competitions, Inzaghi's wards claimed the title. But the black and blues essentially only had a serious setback here. In the aforementioned Super Cup, they emerged victorious, defeating both Lazio and Napoli, once again clinching the trophy there for the third time in a row. Moreover, in the Champions League, the Italians managed to advance to the playoffs, beating Atletico thanks to Arnautovic's goal. It is quite possible that the Milan giants will focus on this tournament because the intrigue in Serie A regarding the battle for the scudetto is approaching zero. There, the leader first defeated the main and essentially the only pursuer, Juventus, in a head-to-head match. And then they pulled away from the Old Lady, who made several mistakes. There were no problems with Lecce in the last round; they comfortably defeated the modest opponent 4-1.

Atalanta once bet on Gasperini – a coach who failed at the top clubs, including Inter, but knows how to lead ambitious mid-table teams to the top. The club from Bergamo also cemented its place in the top four and played in the Champions League playoffs under him. But it all ended in failure two seasons ago, with a relegation to the ranks of Serie A mid-table teams. However, they did not reconcile with this, and if in the last competition they only finished fifth (actually, considering the real results of Juventus – sixth), now the team is achieving a lot. There's a victory in their Europa League group, which allows them to rest in February, waiting for their opponent in the round of 16, and a campaign in the cup, where they already knocked out Milan away and made it to the semifinals. And, most importantly, in Serie A, they finally managed to gain momentum, becoming serious contenders for a place in the top four. They also played well against the Rossoneri, although the battle ended in a fighting draw of 1-1.
The last time the Bergamo side won a head-to-head match was in 2018. Moreover, the 2-1 victory in the first round became the fourth consecutive win for Nerazzurri against their neighbors from Bergamo. Nerazzurri are clearly aiming for another victory, but the opponent also has enough motivation. Let's bet that in this match, the final score will be total over 2.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
