Betting Predictions
The reigning champions Inter Milan will host Lombardy rivals Atalanta BC at San Siro on Friday in an attempt to win back-to-back Serie A games.
Following a disastrous start to the 2024–25 season, Inter defeated Lecce last week in Turin when La Dea missed a last-second penalty.
Head-to-Head
Inter Milan has a strong record against Atalanta and has triumphed in the last five meetings. Last season, the Nerazzurri triumphed 4-0 at San Siro to complete the double. When the clubs met in Milan last weekend, Inter was eager to open their Scudetto defense with a victory over expected Serie A strugglers Lecce, having begun their defense with a 2-2 draw in Genoa earlier this month. Inter maintained their 12-year record of never losing their first home game with a comfortable 2-0 victory.
The giants from the second city have won in each of the previous six seasons. After losing to Real Madrid in the UEFA Super Cup, Atalanta defeated Lecce 4-0 in their league debut. Nevertheless, Mario Pasalic missed a stoppage-time penalty that would have secured a 2-2 draw with Torino the previous time out, despite new signing Mateo Retegui scoring once more.
Team News
This week, Inter manager Simone Inzaghi might be without captain Lautaro Martinez once more as the Capocannoniere from last season continues to struggle with a muscle issue.
Mehdi Taremi, a former striker for Porto, began against Lecce and should be able to hold off Arnautovic’s challenge to partner Marcus Thuram up front.
Tajon Buchanan is still out with a leg injury, but Dutch defender Stefan de Vrij has resumed full training and may start alongside summer acquisition Piotr Zielinski on the bench.
Gian Piero Gasperini, the manager of Atalanta, will still need to fill several gaps in his team: goalkeeper Juan Musso is leaving for Atletico Madrid, El Bilal Toure recently left for Stuttgart, and Teun Koopmeiners is headed to Juventus. Ademola Lookman, the Europa League hero, is also expected to be transferred.
Moreover, Mitchel Bakker and Sead Kolasinac won’t be available this weekend, and Gianluca Scamacca and Giorgio Scalvini are both chronic absentees.
However, veteran pair Rui Patricio and Juan Cuadrado have arrived, and fellow newcomer Raoul Bellanova will compete with Davide Zappacosta for the wingback position.
Mateo Retegui teams up with former Milan forward Charles De Ketelaere in the final third after the forward scored three goals in his first two Serie A games for La Dea.
Probable Line-Up
Inter Milan XI:
Sommer; Pavard, Acerbi, Bastoni; Darmian, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Thuram, Taremi
Atalanta BC XI:
Carnesecchi; De Roon, Hien, Djimsiti; Bellanova, Ederson, Pasalic, Ruggeri; Brescianini, De Ketelaere; Retegui
Verdict
Tip Inter Milan to Winâś…
Reason
La Dea lost 2-1 at Torino after grabbing the lead in the 26th minute, and the fourth-place finishers from last season will have their work cut out for them at the San Siro.
It seems like a great option to support Inter to win because they have won 12 of their last 16 home league games and are undefeated.

Tip: Over 2.5 Goalsâś…
Reason
Although it makes sense that Inter hasn’t reached its peak from the previous campaign yet, it should be able to handle the threat posed by the erratic Atalanta.
Although La Dea put together a stellar 2023–24 season, they have since experienced squad disruptions and are occasionally caught off guard.
