The Italian title race intensifies as Atalanta vs Inter Milan takes center stage in Serie A. Atalanta, currently third in the league, are just three points behind leaders Inter and will be eager to close the gap with a statement victory. Meanwhile, Simone Inzaghi’s Inter are chasing yet another domestic triumph alongside their European ambitions.

Kick-off is set for Sunday, March 16, 2025, at 7:45 PM UK time. While the match won’t be televised in the UK, it can be streamed via OneFootball, and in the US, it will be available on Paramount+.

Atalanta Preview: Can They Keep the Momentum?

Atalanta have struggled with consistency this season but have picked up crucial wins to stay in the title hunt. Their 4-0 demolition of Juventus last weekend showcased their attacking prowess, with goals from Mateo Retegui, Marten de Roon, Davide Zappacosta, and Ademola Lookman.

Gian Piero Gasperini’s men will be banking on home advantage to take down the reigning champions. However, defensive vulnerabilities and a recent history of erratic performances could make this a tricky fixture.

Key Player to Watch: Ademola Lookman

The Nigerian forward has been a driving force for Atalanta this season, and his ability to break defensive lines will be crucial against a well-organized Inter defense.

Inter Milan Preview: Eyes on the Treble

Inter Milan head into this clash fresh from a 2-1 victory over Feyenoord in the Champions League, securing a 4-1 aggregate win. Their Serie A form remains solid as well, with their most recent league outing featuring a dramatic 3-2 comeback victory against Monza.

Simone Inzaghi’s side are well-drilled and resilient, but a few key injuries, particularly in defense, could leave them vulnerable against Atalanta’s aggressive attack.

Key Player to Watch: Lautaro Martínez

With his lethal finishing and ability to link up with Marcus Thuram, Lautaro will be crucial for Inter in breaking through Atalanta’s backline.
