Inter maintained their perfect record in 2024 to thrash Lecce on Sunday thanks to Lautaro Martinez’s brace and one effort each from Davide Frattesi and Stefan de Vrij. It was Nerazzurri’s 21st league-win of the season and the result extended their winning run to ten games in all competitions. Not only have Simone Inzaghi’s side lost only one of their 25 top flight games this season, they have scored (61) and conceded the fewest (12) goals in the division. Moreover, the Cherished One have won each of their last six games at San Siro, scoring 13 goals and keeping five clean sheets in the process. Indeed, Inter have come out on top in each of their last four encounters with Atalanta in all competitions.
Atalanta, on the other hand, are also entering the mid-week contest on the back of an impressive run of form, unbeaten in their last 10 competitive games in all tournaments, while recording eight wins in the period. La Dea saw their five-game winning run in the Serie A come to an end versus Milan on Sunday courtesy of playing out a 1-1 draw at San Siro. Rafael Leao’s third-minute opener put Rossoneri ahead but the Black and Blues fought back to level the score through Teun Koopmeiners’ 42nd-minute effort from the penalty spot. A victory on Wednesday will help Gian Piero Gasperini’s side to leapfrog surprise package Bologna into the fourth spot.
