Inter Milan preview: Clinching the title

Internazionale come into this one needing to get back on track in their pursuit of a 21st Italian league title, with the Nerazzurri beginning the weekend’s round of fixtures sitting seven points clear at the top-of-the-table.

Frustratingly for Cristian Chivu’s side, though, they were beaten in the Derby della Madonnina last week against AC Milan, with the Rossoneri able to cut Inter’s lead down to seven points.

Atalanta preview: Frustrated Bergamasci

Atalanta come into this one on the back of a 6-1 demolition of Bayern Munich in the first-leg of their UEFA Champions League round of 16 tie in midweek – in a game in which Atalanta were perhaps fortunate to keep the scoreline that low.

Ever since they produced their remarkable comeback to defeat Borussia Dortmund in the knockout playoffs, Atalanta have struggled for form once again, with a four-match winless run of form across all competitions.

Inter Milan vs Atalanta prediction

In the summer, Atalanta got the appointment of Ivan Juric to replace Gian Piero Gasperini badly wrong. Raffaele Palladino, a disciple of Gasperini, has been a much better adjustment but things are beginning to tilt the other way and the upcoming March international break will likely be welcomed. Inter themselves could do with calming down and rediscovering their consistency. They have struggled in big games throughout the season but the low key timing of this clash should aid them.
