Hakan Calhanoglu trusts Inter are ‘more of a team now’ and can get the better of Atalanta. ‘It’s a game for the Scudetto.’
It kicks off at 19.45 GMT, you can follow the build-up and action as it happens on the LIVEBLOG.
These teams drew 2-2 at San Siro earlier this season in a fascinating clash and more fireworks are expected this evening.
“We are more of a team now than back then. We know where we have to move and hopefully will get the three points tonight,” Calhanoglu told DAZN and Inter TV.
“We know the movements without even looking, we practice them week after week, and that makes the difference.”
It is certainly paying off, as Inter have won their last eight Serie A games in a row and beat Juventus 2-1 in extra time to lift the Supercoppa Italiana on Wednesday.
“The Supercoppa is already in the past, this is a difficult match against Atalanta, a game for the Scudetto. Atalanta play in a similar manner to us, but we prepared well with the coach and staff.
“It’s going to be very physical, individual duels will be crucial and we are ready.”
