Inter Milan is still in the Serie A title race, but the mountain they must climb just got bigger after Napoli's win over AS Roma on Sunday. For the time being, they will concentrate on the Coppa Italia, hosting Atalanta in their next match. They enter this quarterfinal game having come from behind to defeat Parma 2-1 in the previous round.
Prior to this game, Inter came from behind to defeat Cremonese 2-1 in the league, thanks to a brace from Lautaro Martinez, and having trailed in three of their last five matches, they will be hoping for a better start in this one.
Atalanta will put aside their top four race, in which Inter is competing, in order to secure a place in the Coppa Italia semi-finals. The visitors have a good run coming into this game and should see it as an opportunity to keep their silverware dreams alive. They came here undefeated in six matches across all competitions, and they thrashed Spezia 5-2 in the round of 16.
In their last seven games, they've scored at least two goals. Ademola Lookman has seven goals in Atalanta's last four games and will be a major threat here.
KICKOFF TIME: Inter Milan versus Atalanta match will go down today at 8PM Nigerian time.
