Stats before the game: Inter are unbeaten in 25 Serie A rounds against newly promoted teams (W22, D3). More specifically, the Nerazzurri are coming off nine consecutive wins against opponents from Serie B and could reach 10 in a row for the first time since 2003, with Héctor Cúper on the bench. With one success, Inter (67) could equal Roma (68) as the team that has found victory against the most different opponents in the history of Serie A (Juventus, Lazio, Bologna and Fiorentina also have 67). Inter are the third opponent from Lombardy that Monza faces in Serie A after Milan and Atalanta (2P). Also considering the cadet tournament, the red and white have collected just one point in the last five matches against teams from this region (1-1 vs Brescia last April) after having won 12 in as many previous matches (W4, L1). Inter have failed to find success in 12 of their last 16 away games against Lombard opponents outside San Siro in Serie A, drawing eight times (P4), two of which in the most recent three. After the 2-0 draw against Verona and the 3-0 draw against Salernitana, Monza could achieve three straight home wins for the first time in the top division. Also considering Serie B, the red and white have not succeeded since last April: three, all with clean sheets.
