MILANO - Following the vital victory over FC Salzburg in the Champions League, the Nerazzurri are back at San Siro. At 18:00 CET on Sunday 29 October, Inter host Roma on Serie A matchday 10.
HEAD-TO-HEAD
This will be the 181st meeting between Inter and Roma in Serie A: 76 wins for the Nerazzurri, 50 for the Giallorossi, and 54 draws. No fixture in Serie A history has seen more more goals than the one between Inter and Roma: 523 in 180 games, 2.9 per match. The Nerazzurri are unbeaten in 11 of their last 12 league games against the Giallorossi.
INTER PRIMACY
Inter have had a stunning start to the season, which is backed up by the stats from the first nine matchdays. The Nerazzurri have scored 24 goals and conceded just five in Serie A this season: no side in Europe’s Top-5 leagues has a better goal difference: +19, level with Bayern Munich. Simone Inzaghi’s side have scored the most second-half goals in Serie A this season, as well as the most from set pieces, open play and also from crosses.
SOMMER: CLEAN SHEET MACHINE
Experience, charisma and dependability. Yann Sommer has become the third goalkeeper in the three-points-per-win era to keep six clean sheets in his first nine Serie A appearances, after Cristiano Lupatelli and Alisson Becker.
EL TORO ON THE SCORESHEET
Lautaro Martínez has scored eleven goals in the league this season. Only two Inter players have scored more in their first 10 league games of the season: Giuseppe Meazza (14 in 1933/24 and 12 in 1935/36) and Antonio Valentino Angelillo (19 in 1958/59). The Nerazzurri's captain is on a stunning run of form and is one of just two players to have scored ten league goals in Europe's Top-5 leagues in 2023/24 so far.
TIKUS' NUMBERS
Marcus Thuram has hit the ground running this season with eight goal involvements so far: three goals and five assists. The French forward is one of the key weapons in Simone Inzaghi's strikeforce.
