Inter Milan with firm strides heading towards the scudetto
A six-match winning streak has seen Inter Milan build a commanding lead at the top of the Serie A table with six points ahead of their closest followers and rivals AC Milan. This stability in form has seen the Nerazzurri score 17 goals in the six games they won and conceding just two goals.
Boss Antonio Conte has worked on his defense in those matches as his team had four clean sheets during the process and is one of the main reasons why Inter are the main contenders to win the scudetto for the 19th time.
An interesting stat is that every time Inter Milan have collected 59+ points in a season and that has happened three times before in the three-point a win era, they have won the Serie A title. Inter already have 62 points this season. They are in for a serious test though on Monday as the Milan outfit have won just one of their last six matches against their opponents.
Atalanta having a great season so far
Coach Gian Piero Gasperini must be proud of his team as La Dea have won their last four games in a row and are currently at a UEFA Champions League spot. But that spot could be in danger if they don’t get a good result in San Siro on Monday as AS Roma are on their tails and waiting for the chance to snatch the fourth place.
Scoring goals hasn’t been a problem for the Bergamo outfit as they are second only to Inter Milan with 60 goals this season so far. 15 goals in five matches have seen them collect 13 points out of a possible 15.
They have to hang on to their fourth spot for a UCL berth next season, as they lost the 1st leg of the Champions League match against Real Madrid and face a difficult task in the second leg in Madrid of overcoming a 0-1 deficit.
