Inter vs Atalanta prediction 14.03.2026 | Serie A

Inter had an excellent start to the season. Still, when it all looked great, Nerazzurri suffered an unexpected elimination from the Champions League by Bodo/Glimt, creating one of the biggest upsets in modern football. They followed that up with a couple of poor results, drawing 0:0 with Como in Coppa Italia and then losing 1:0 in Serie A to AC Milan. Despite having a seven-point advantage over 2nd-placed AC Milan, we can safely say they are in a challenging moment.

In the previous game, Alessandro Bastoni suffered an injury and had to leave the field after 67 minutes. He will most likely miss the game along with Hakan Çalhanoğlu, who is dealing with a groin injury. Also, Lautaro Martinez was on the bench in the previous game due to an injury, and is listed as questionable for the Atalanta match. On the positive side, Marcus Thuram should return to the field after missing the city derby with AC Milan due to illness. 

Atalanta established themselves as one of the best teams in Italy in recent seasons. This year, they had ups and downs throughout the season, but March has been terrible for the popular La Dea. With a massive 6:1 loss to Bayern Munich in the first leg of the Champions League 1/8 Finals, we can safely say they are out of the competition. Now, their focus will be entirely on reaching Coppa Italia Finals and moving upwards to European spots in Serie A. At the moment, they are in 7th place with 46 points, five points behind the desired 4th place. 

After a 6:1 loss against Bayern Munich, coach Raffaele Palladino spoke to the media. He said there is a big difference in quality, saying Bayern showed they are among the best teams in the world. He added that this match should be a valuable lesson for his players, which would help them grow.
