Atalanta, on the other hand, has its own set of aces. Viktor Kovalenko, with a rating of 6.70, has been a consistent performer in the midfield, adding a goal and an assist to his tally. Defender Emil Alfons Holm has stood out with a rating of 6.76, and his defensive efforts have been crucial for Atalanta's solid backline. Moreover, Davide Zappacosta's experience and a rating of 6.84 make him a threat from the flanks, contributing 2 goals and an assist.

Inter's recent form is nothing short of spectacular, with a winning streak of five consecutive victories. They sit comfortably at the top of the table with 63 points, asserting their dominance with 20 wins out of 24 matches. Their home record is particularly impressive, boasting 10 wins out of 12 matches at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.

Atalanta, positioned fourth with 45 points, has also showcased a strong run of form with five back-to-back wins. Their away record, however, tells a story of inconsistency with 4 wins, 2 draws, and 5 losses. This clash presents a crucial opportunity for them to solidify their claim for a Champions League spot.
