⚽️ Serie A Top Scorer up to Week 35 (Updated on Monday 15 May 2023)
Monza achieved a prestigious victory defeating Italy’s Champions at the U-Power Stadium. Napoli suffered the fourth defeat in the league returning to lose more than a month after the home defeat against Milan for 0-4. Now Spalletti’s team can no longer be defeated if they want to reach at least 90 points. Monza got the seventh consecutive useful result and continues the run-up to eighth place, remaining level on points with Fiorentina and Torino, waiting for Bologna, which by winning against Roma would reach the group at 49.
Empoli got a late equalizer against Sampdoria “already relegated” which mean arithmetic salvation.
As presented by Opta stats via Lega Serie A. Lazio forward Ciro Immobile scored again at home, in Serie A TIM, 243 days (612 minutes) after the last one, scored against Verona, on 11 September last. Lazio 2 – 2 Lecce
Remi Oudin is only the third French player to score at least two goals at the Olimpico against Lazio in Serie A, after Paul Pogba (two, in November 2014) and Thierry Henry (two, in April 1999), both with Juventus.
Salernitana has remained unbeaten in the last six home league games (W3, D3) for the first time since the period between February and May 1999 (six in that case too).
For the first time under the management of Gian Piero Gasperini, Atalanta have conceded goals in 10 consecutive matches in a single Serie A TIM tournament.
Przemyslaw Wiśniewski’s is the first goal scored by a Spezia defender in this championship: Petko Hristov scored the last in the competition more than a year ago (April 30, 2022 vs Lazio).
Milan finished two games in a row without scoring in all competitions for the first time since last January – even then the first of the two meetings was a derby loss against Inter (0-3 in EA SPORTS Supercup, then 0- 4 in Serie A TIM vs Lazio).
Against no team, Romelu Lukaku has scored more multiple goals than against Sassuolo in Serie A TIM (two braces like against Benevento and Genoa).
Inter have won their last seven games counting all competitions. The last time the Nerazzurri achieved multiple wins in a row in a single season was between February and April 2021 (nine in that case).
Torino have won three consecutive away games without conceding a goal in Serie A for the first time since March 1970.
Nikola Vlasic is the third Croatian midfielder to score at least five goals in his first season in Serie A TIM after Mario Pasalic (five in 2016/17) and Ivan Perisic (seven in 2015/16).
For the first time in this championship, Fiorentina have closed two games in a row at home without conceding a goal.
Udinese is the team against which Gaetano Castrovilli has been involved in the most goals in Serie A TIM (five: three goals and two assists).
Monza are the first newly promoted side to score 49 points after 35 Serie A matches since Verona in 2013/14 (52 points).
All four of Napoli’s defeats in this Serie A TIM season have come in 2023, and in all four they have failed to score.
Roma’s starting lineup with an average age of 25 years and 34 days is the youngest starting XI fielded by José Mourinho in his Serie A career.
Bologna have drawn three home games in a row in Serie A TIM for the first time since March 2016, in that case with Roberto Donadoni in charge.
Juventus (21) is the team that has scored the most goals with players born after 2000 in this Serie A TIM season.
Only Barcelona (25) have obtained more clean sheets than Juventus (19, like Lazio) in the top five European tournaments 22/23.
Sampdoria is the team that has conceded the most goals in added time (eight).
Roberto Piccoli has scored five of his seven Serie A goals coming into the current game, including all three most recently.

✅ Stats before the game: Monza have won only one of their last seven league games against Napoli (D3 L3), 2-1 in Serie B on 30 May 1999, with goals from Mario Lemme and Massimo Oddo (Francesco Turrini for the Neapolitans). Napoli are unbeaten away to Monza in the league thanks to two wins and three draws, all in Serie B – the most recent being a 0-0 draw on 5 September 1999. Monza are looking for their first point against opponents in the top three of the table at the start of the day in Serie A – currently five out of five knockouts, with only one goal scored (against Milan on 22 October) and 13 conceded (2.6 in average per game). Napoli have won 14 of their 17 away games this season (D2 L1) and can become the third team in Serie A history to collect at least 15 away wins in a single season, after Inter in 2006/07 (15 ) and Milan 2020/21 (16). In the last 10 Serie A matches, Monza have lost only once (0-2 vs Lazio, 2 April 2023): in the period (from the beginning of March), no team has done better than the Brianza (only one defeat also for Salernitana). Napoli have won 26 matches in this league so far (no team has done better in the big five tournaments 2022/23): in their entire history in Serie A they have only done better in the 2017/18 season (28).
