Simone Inzaghi’s Inter are looking to continue their hunt for silverware with a Coppa Italia quarter-final win over Atalanta.
The match between Inter and Atalanta kicks off at 20:00 UK time at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.
Inzaghi’s side kept things tense in the Round of 16 clash with Parma, being 1-0 down heading into the dying minutes of the match. Lautaro Martinez netted the equaliser in the 88th minute before Francesco Acerbi found the winner in the 110th minute, sending Inter into the next round of the competition.
The Nerazzurri are still without the injured Marcelo Brozovic and Samir Handanovic. Milan Skriniar will also be absent due to his transfer market situation, with Paris Saint-Germain hoping to agree a deal before the end of the day.
Atalanta did not struggle in their Coppa Italia Round of 16 outing, flying to confident 5-2 win over Spezia.
Gian Piero Gasperini cannot count on Jose Luis Palomino and Davide Zappacosta, both of whom are out injured. Merih Demiral will also be sidelined as Inter prepare to replace Skriniar with the former Juventus defender.
Probable line-ups for Inter vs Atalanta
Inter (3-5-2): Onana; Darmian, De Vrij, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Asllani, Calhanoglu, Gosens; Lautaro, Correa.
Atalanta (3-4-3): Musso; Toloi, Djimsiti, Scalvini; Hateboer, De Roon, Koopmeiners, Maehle; Lookman, Hojlund, Boga.
All Argentine attack. Super. Atalanta are favorites, but I want another Coppa since scudetto is going slow in Naples. 😉
