In the sixteen official matches played against Inter, Ulivieri has won 6, lost 6 and drawn 3 matches. But in 9 home matches, Ulivieri has beaten Inter just once (Parma 3-1 Inter, 2000/01 Serie A).

No Torino victory for 10 matches, but no defeat for a month

Torino are the 2002/03 Serie A side that haven't won for the longest period of time. The last Granata success was on 6 November 2002, a 2-1 win against Bologna at the Delle Alpi. But Ulivieri's side haven't lost for a month. Torino's last defeat was on 21 December 2002, when they lost 1-0 at home to Roma. Since then, Toro have drawn at home to Atalanta and Como, and away to Empoli and Bologna.

No Torino goal against Inter at Delle Alpi stadium for 9 years

Torino haven't scored in official matches at home to Inter since 27 February 1994, when they won a championship match 2-0 thanks to goals from Poggi and Cois. Since then, the two sides have met at the Delle Alpi four times and the Nerazzurri have registered a win on each occasion.

Vieri a hat-trick away from 100th Serie A goal

Last Sunday's hat-trick against Empoli increases Christian Vieri's Serie A tally to 97. With 3 more goals, Bobogol will reach the prestigious 100-goal mark in the Italian top flight, equalling a feat achieved by eight players still plying their trade: Roberto Baggio, Batistuta, Signori, Chiesa, Crespo, Montella, Pippo Inzaghi and Bierhoff.

Record Inter against bottom 9 clubs

Inter have registered 9 victories and 1 draw in matches played against the bottom 9 teams in the 2002/03 Serie A table. Cuper's troops have won at home to Empoli, Modena, Brescia, Atalanta and Torino, away to Empoli, Piacenza, Reggina and Como, and have drawn away to Roma.
