Preview before the game 👉⚫️🔵 Inter Milan vs 🟡🔴Lecce

Inter holds the record for the most victories against Lecce in Serie A, boasting 28 wins, 4 draws, and just 4 losses. They also lead in goals scored against the Salento side, netting 85 times in the league.

In the past 11 seasons of Serie A, Inter has maintained an impressive record, never losing their opening home match, achieving nine victories, including five in their last five attempts. The last time they faced defeat in their first home game at San Siro was back in September 2012, under the management of Andrea Stramaccioni.

From the 2022/23 to the 2023/24 season, Inter has triumphed in all four encounters with Lecce, scoring 10 goals while conceding just one, resulting in a remarkable goal difference of +9. The only team they performed better against during this stretch was Salernitana, with a +10 goal difference.

In their 18 home matches against Lecce in Serie A, Inter has claimed victory 17 times, with only one loss (a 1-0 defeat on January 12, 2000, courtesy of a goal from Vugrinec). They have achieved 12 clean sheets and allowed just six goals, never conceding more than one in a game. Lecce is among only four teams that have played at Inter's home ground at least 10 times without ever scoring two goals, alongside Novara (13), Foggia (11), and Avellino (10).

Inter started this championship with a draw in their first match. In the era of three points for a win, only three defending champions have failed to secure a win in their first two games of the season: Roma in 2001/02 (the only one to draw both), Milan in 2011/12, and Juventus in 2015/16.

Since the end of last season and the beginning of this one, Inter has drawn three consecutive matches. The Nerazzurri have not experienced back-to-back draws since December 2017 to February 2018 in the league, when they had five draws during that period under Spalletti's management.
