Lautaro - Verona

The Inter vs Atalanta Coppa Italia match will mark the beginning of a challenging set of fixtures for the Nerazzurri. After facing Atalanta in the mid-week encounter, Inter will take on city rivals Milan on Sunday. Subsequently, Inzaghi’s men will travel to Sampdoria next.

In many ways, this fixture is also the beginning of Inter’s actual title defence as the genuine contenders take on one another. Furthermore, the transfer rumours will have an effect on the dressing room. As natural leaders like Milan Skriniar and D’Ambrosio stare the exit, Inter will not take the field with clear heads.

Simone Inzaghi will be breathing easy after the slip-up by Milan and Lazio. Inter now sit second in the league table with Napoli an impressive 13 points ahead. Also, this can help the former Lazio boss go all out for the cup and Atalanta are his first obstacle.
