The big games come thick and fast for Inter and Atalanta, who won’t have a chance to rest any of their stars ahead of the Champions League next week.
The two Serie A rivals face another stern test at the Giuseppe Meazza this weekend, as Simone Inzaghi said Joaquin Correa might have recovered in time to be involved against the Orobici.
But the Argentine is not expected to start against Gian Piero Gasperini’s men, who arrive as serious contenders for the top spots in the League yet again.
Edin Dzeko and Lautaro Martinez seem set to start up front for the home side, with Ruslan Malinovskyi and Duvan Zapata spearheading the Orobici in Milan.
