Prediction: 1-1
Atalanta
A spot in the Italian Super Cup final will be at stake when Inter and Atalanta lock horns at Kingdom Arena on Thursday evening. The Nerazzurri faced no difficulties in a 3-0 win over Cagliari at the weekend, but they will have a big fish to fry against the Orobici. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Lautaro Martinez, who managed to put an end to his goalless run in Sardinia, while both Benjamin Pavard and Francesco Acerbi remain in the recovery room.
Atalanta, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Lazio. The nominal visitors, though, had a very successful first half of the season and they are surely capable of holding Inter to a draw in regular time. All Mateo Retegui, Gianluca Scamacca, and El Bilal Toure are out of contention through injuries for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Hakan Calhanoglu):
Hakan Calhanoglu is another one in the long line of Turkish footballers who were born in Germany, so it is hardly surprising he came to prominence thanks to his performances in Bundesliga. The attacking midfielder with great vision and very good goalscoring record started his professional career at Karlsruher, scoring impressive 17 goals in 50 league outings to earn a move to Bundesliga side Hamburg.
The spell at Imtech Arena was merely a stepping stone for bigger things as 11 goals in his debut top flight campaign persuaded Bayer Leverkusen to splash nearly €15 million on his services. That proved a very good investment as Calhanoglu continued the rich vein of form, and it is now a matter of time before he joins one of European powerhouses.
The midfield maestro had a bright start to his career in the Turkey national team, scoring 5 goals in first 16 caps, and chances are he will become a leader for Milli Takim in the foreseeable future.
Highlighted Team (Atalanta):
Atalanta Bergamasco Calcio, better known as Atalanta Bergamo is an Italian football club from Bergamo which was founded in 1907 and is currently active in the Serie A.
