Inter in Turin to draw level with Napoli

The Nerazzurri and Partenopei will once again play back-to-back, but this time with the kick-off times reversed compared to last week. At the Olimpico Grande Torino, Inter will be looking to put pressure on Napoli ahead of the latter’s game against Genoa at 20:45 CEST. Meanwhile, the hosts, who drew against Venezia last week, are hoping to pick up a prestigious result, make their fans proud and reclaim tenth spot in the table.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

After avoiding defeat in five consecutive games (W2 D3), Torino have lost 10 of their last 11 matches (D1) against Inter in Serie A, with an aggregate score of 24-7. In this period (since 2019-20), the Nerazzurri are the team against which the Granata have suffered the most defeats in the competition (10, at least two more than against any other opponent). Inter have won their last five Serie A matches against Torino, recording four clean sheets in the process; only once have the Nerazzurri achieved more consecutive victories against the Granata in the competition: seven, between September 2002 and September 2008. In the era of three points for a win (since 1994-95), Torino have lost 14 of their 20 home encounters (W2 D4) against Inter in Serie A; the Granata had lost only 17 of their 60 previous home matches (W23 D20) against the Nerazzurri in the top-flight.

DID YOU KNOW?

Torino are one of four teams in Serie A, alongside Bologna, Roma and Napoli, not to have lost at home in 2025. The Granata are unbeaten in nine home matches (W4 D5) and have not achieved at least 10 games in a row without losing at home in Serie A since April - November 1995, under Nedo Sonetti. Among teams in the top half of the Serie A table, Inter are only one of two, alongside Lazio, not to have recorded successive clean sheets in 2025. After eight consecutive away wins, Inter have won only one of their last seven away games (D3 L3) in Serie A: the 2-0 win against Atalanta in March. Across this period (since February), only Fiorentina have earned fewer points (4 points) away from home among the teams in the top half of the table. Inter are one of three teams to have scored the most goals from set piece situations in the big five European League this season: 22, level with Bayern Munich and Osasuna. 11 of these goals came from a corner: a record in Serie A and less only than Arsenal (13) in the current Big-5 (Wolfsburg and Crystal Palace also have 11).

PLAYERS

Inter are the team against which Nikola Vlasic has lost the most matches in Serie A: five out of five; furthermore, after his goal last time out against Venezia, the Croatian could both set a personal record for goals in a single season in the competition (five, also in 2022-23) and score in consecutive games for only the second time in Serie A, after a run of three in August-September 2022. Lautaro Martínez has been involved in 15 goals (12 goals, 3 assists) in Serie A this season. The Argentine is looking to become the first player to be involved in more than 15 goals in each of the last six Serie A campaigns (since 2019-20). Torino are the team against which Marcus Thuram has scored the most goals in Serie A: four, including the only hat-trick he has scored in his career in the big five European Leagues (last October at the Meazza). Furthermore, only three Inter players have scored at least two braces in the competition against the Granata: Roberto Boninsegna (2), Virgilio Levratto (2) and Giuseppe Meazza (4).
