Inter have a nervous final few weeks to the campaign, as Simone Inzaghi gears up for their huge Champions League final tie with Manchester City on June 10th. Inzaghi’s charges have reached their first Champions League final since 2010 and, despite their underdog status, the Serie A side are capable of an upset.
On the domestic front, one more win will ensure a top four finish and a Champions League place for next season – and Inzaghi will want to get that box ticked as soon as possible. Gian Piero Gasperini’s visitors look set to just miss out on a top four space, despite Juventus’ renewed slip down the ranks due to a fresh points penalty for Max Allegri’s team this month.
Inter have won five of their last six league games and have lost just twice at home since the start of April across all competitions. In comparison, Atalanta have won just once in their last three, and Gasperini’s charges have also won just once in their last three away matches.
Inter’s march to the Champions League final has been built on a very tight defence and a ruthless streak in front of goal, with Inzaghi’s team only scoring over 2.5 goals on one occasion in their last five European and Serie A matches.
Despite Atalanta’s form not being particularly poor, the sense is that Inzaghi wants top four sealed before the final weekend in order to start his planning for the game against City.
Even if Atalanta do pick up points in this tie or their final game of the campaign, they are relying on a slip from fourth-place Milan, who take on Juventus and relegation-battling Verona in the run-in.

Atalanta have a lengthy injury list and Gasperini is likely to give some players the rest of the campaign off to recover properly. Duvan Zapata, Jeremie Boga and Jose Luis Palomino are all out this weekend, with Hans Hateboer’s season also already over.
