Inter Milan vs. Atalanta: A spectacular semi-final matchup looms in the Supercoppa Italia, with Inter Milan favorites against an Atalanta team that has had an exceptional season. Lautaro Martínez, the star striker of Simone Inzaghi’s side, ended a 55-day goal drought by scoring his second goal against Cagliari in Serie A before leaving for Saudi Arabia. He aims to continue his streak of goals in this short competition.
The ‘Neroazzurri’ have a powerful squad and a well-oiled machine. They dominated last season’s Scudetto and want to repeat their victory. They are approaching this match at Al-Awwal Park in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, with particular attention. In the other semi-final, Juventus faces AC Milan.
Gasperini’s Atalanta are currently leading the Scudetto race with 41 points, but they are coming off a disappointing 1-1 draw against Lazio, ending an incredible eleven-game winning streak in Serie A. They are eager to bounce back during the Supercoppa.

Atalanta presents a spectacular attacking duo with Charles De Ketelaere and Ademola Lookman. With Pasalic, Zappacosta and Ederson, who controls the midfield, as well as De Roon and Bellanova, they favor a very offensive style of play. However, Matteo Retegui will be a significant absence in Atalanta’s attack due to a torn muscle, putting him out of contention for the Supercoppa Italia.
