👉 Stats before the game: Last season Monza were one of only two teams, together with Juventus, against which Inter failed to win a single match in Serie A: 2-2 draw in the first leg at the U-Power Stadium, the Palladino’s men for 1-0 in the second leg at the Meazza (goal from Caldirola). In the last six Lombard derbies in the first Serie A match of the season, the home team has remained unbeaten: four home wins and two draws in the period. Inter have always won their last four matches on the first day of Serie A, but they haven’t recorded a longer streak of successes in the first round since the period between 1993 and 1997 (five in that case). Inter have remained unbeaten in the last 10 championships in their first home game of the season; (8V, 2N); the last defeat dates back to 2012 with Andrea Stramaccioni on the bench (1-3 against Roma). In the last three seasons between Serie A and Serie B, Monza have never won in their season opener in the league: 0-0 in 2020/21 vs SPAL, 0-0 vs Reggina in 2021/22 and 1-2 vs Turin in 2022 /23.
👉 Lineup INTER (3-5-2): Sommer – Darmian, De Vrij, Bastoni – Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco – Lautaro Martinez, Thuram.
👉 Lineup MONZA (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio – D’Ambrosio, Pablo Marì, Caldirola – Ciurria, Pessina, Gagliardini, Kyriakopoulos – Colpani, Caprari – Maric.
