"The setback raised fresh doubts about Chivu's ability to manage high-stakes encounters, following previous losses to Liverpool, Atletico Madrid, Milan, Juventus, and Napoli. Against weaker opposition, however, Inter have been ruthless, scoring freely in recent weeks-four goals against Como and two each versus Pisa and Genoa-cementing their status as Serie A's most prolific attack. Inter now turn their focus to Atalanta, a team they have dominated in recent years."
"Hakan Calhanoglu and Matteo Darmian have returned from injury, but three key players remain sidelined. Francesco Acerbi is out with a thigh issue, Denzel Dumfries faces a lengthy absence after ankle surgery, and Yoan-Ange Bonny is recovering from a knee sprain. Marcus Thuram is expected to partner Lautaro Martinez up front, with the captain in fine form-scoring in his last three league games and boasting nine goal involvements in 12 previous Serie A appearances against Atalanta."
Inter Milan head to Bergamo to face Atalanta in a Serie A fixture that concludes the 2025 calendar. Inter reclaimed top spot after a 2-1 win over Genoa and sit one point ahead of AC Milan and two clear of Napoli. A Supercoppa semi-final penalty-shootout defeat to Bologna intensified questions about Cristian Chivu in big matches. Inter have scored freely against weaker opponents and have dominated Atalanta recently, winning the last six league meetings and remaining unbeaten in 13. Calhanoglu and Darmian have returned, while Acerbi, Dumfries and Bonny are sidelined. Marcus Thuram is likely to partner Lautaro Martinez, who arrives in strong form.
