JAKARTA - Inter Milan's big match against Atalanta in the Italian Serie A will be monitored by Italy national team coach Gennaro Gattuso. There are 12 players who will compete at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium, Sunday, March 15, 2026 WIB, in the Gattuso radar.

The match at Inter's home is the most present of all the Italian national team players, so Gattuso feels the need to monitor it in particular. In fact, 12 players are predicted to enter the national team, and three of them have already been guaranteed and will be starters, namely Francesco Pio Esposito, Nicolo Barella, and Federico Dimarco.

In addition to the three players, according to Football Italia, Inter are likely to contribute Alessandro Bastoni, Davide Frattesi, Matteo Darmian and Francesco Acerbi. This means that there are seven players from I Nerazzurri who will be included in the Italian squad.

Meanwhile, Atalanta also did not want to lose by offering Giorgio Scalvini, Marco Carnesecchi, Gianluca Scamacca and Giacomo Raspadori who have not actually recovered from injury. If not recovered, Raspadori will be cut.

Not only them but also other regular players at Atalanta, Davide Zappacosta, Lorenzo Bernasconi and Raoul Bellanova have a chance to enter the Gli Azzurri.

Gattuso is more diligent in visiting the stadium to watch the performance of the players who will join the national team.

Italy will face Northern Ireland in the semi-final of the playoff in Bergamo on March 27, 2026. If they succeed in passing the Northern Ireland hurdle, they will be the visiting team to face Wales or Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Inter themselves are still at the top of the table despite conceding a goal in the last match to their city rivals, AC Milan. In the derby della Madonnina at San Siro, Milan won 1-0 and cut the points gap with Cristian Chivu's team.

Meanwhile, Atalanta is trying to improve its performance so that it can return to the winning track to get a ticket to the Europa League or Champions League. Currently, La Dea is still in seventh place with 46 points.
