Inter vs Atalanta prediction and betting tips on January 2, 2025

Game Prediction

The Italian Super Cup semi-final will feature a match between Inter and Atalanta on January 2, 2025. It is unlikely that the rivals will be so determined to play only for victory, but they are definitely not against staying in Riyadh.
Our prediction for the match Inter vs Atalanta
“The Nerazzurri” were able to win the Italian championship last season. Moreover, they secured the Scudetto with maximum confidence and ahead of schedule. “The Bergamascs” also did great: they returned to the top 4 in the Serie A and won the Europa League. Still, they went to Saudi Arabia as cup finalists, although they lost there.
The clubs are currently playing in the Champions League. And in fact, already now, without waiting for the January rounds, they have secured the right to be in the play-offs. Also, the teams have not yet encountered problems in the cup of the country. Speaking about the Serie A, “the Goddess” did better, and they celebrated Christmas as leaders. January began with a 1-1 draw in the meeting with Lazio. The Milanese grandee, however, having stalled at the start, then got into shape and has every chance to retain the title. The tea, after victories over Como and Cagliari, is the leader, albeit “in terms of lost points” (still, it needs to win the postponed game).
“The Black and Blues” have got excellent statistics. They score about 2.7 goals, which compensates for the almost goal per match (to be more precise, 0.88) that Sommer concedes on average. It is curious that Gasperini’s footballers have got a slightly worse ratio – 2.39/1.11.
