Inter’s 2025 starts off with a trophy at stake. At the Al-Awwal Park Stadium in Riyadh, the Nerazzurri will face Atalanta, their previous opponent in the Scudetto race, in the first semi-final of the 2024/2025 Italian Super Cup.
The 4-0 victory at the start of the season does not deceive Inzaghi, who is ready for an intense challenge. The Nerazzurri’s coach will put the best men at his disposal on the pitch, with a question mark over the condition of Darmian, who was absent in the last championship match against Cagliari but has recovered for this trip to Arabia, as opposed to Acerbi, Pavard and Di Gennaro who stayed in Italy due to their injuries.
Here are the probable line-ups for Inter-Atalanta:
January 2, 2025 – 20:00
Al-Awwal Park Stadium, Riyadh
Inter, playing 3-5-2, managed by Simone Inzaghi and featuring players such as Sommer and Barella, among others. Their bench includes Martinez, Calligaris, and Palacios, among others.
