Gian Piero Gasperini says Atalanta’s match with Inter is an opportunity for his side to further demonstrate their growth.

La Dea endured a difficult start to the Serie A season but four points from two difficult games with Napoli and Fiorentina have seen the Bergamo club climb back towards mid-table.

“The fact that there is confidence around us must be a positive thing and not something to take away our concentration,” Gasperini told a Press conference. “We know it will be a very hard game for us.

La Dea endured a difficult start to the Serie A season but four points from two difficult games with Napoli and Fiorentina have seen the Bergamo club climb back towards mid-table.

“The fact that there is confidence around us must be a positive thing and not something to take away our concentration,” Gasperini told a Press conference. “We know it will be a very hard game for us.

“For us it is a chance to show we are growing.

“We feel that there is a lot of confidence within our group, but we consider Inter as a team made up of very strong players.”

The experienced tactician also expressed his belief that despite their recent troubles, Inter still possess one of the strongest squads in Italy.

“Their squad at the start of the season was definitely touted as one of the best, just behind Juventus.

“They are going through a period that maybe isn’t too happy but in the end, the other evening they still got the result [against Southampton].”
