Does Inter have the ability to beat Lazio who are as out of form as one team can ever be? On Sunday we will find out! Here are some interesting numbers from Whoscored.

Goal-Scoring

Inter are slowly but surely starting to score more goals per game. Lazio don’t seem to be that worse than Inter when it comes to goal-scoring. Lazio have scored 18 goals this season and Inter have scored 22 this season. Lazio’s Top Goalscorer in the club, Felipe Anderson is from a logical point of view their best player. Inter have a striker as Top Goalscorer in the club, Mauro Icardi.

Goal-Stopping

Inter still have the best defense statistically in the Serie A. We have only conceded 9 goals so far. Lazio have conceded 25(!) goals this season, Hellas who are last placed have conceded 26 goals. Lazio conceded 7 goals from Set Pieces, Inter have only conceded 1 goal from Set Pieces. Inter have only conceded 4 goals at home while Lazio have conceded 17 goals in away games.

Passing the ball

Inter average 513 passes per game with each passing streak lasting about 4.8. Lazio have a little bit better passing stats than Inter. Lazio average 522 passes per game with each passing streak lasting about 4.5. These stats do not show a whole lot of difference between the two teams but the obvious is that Lazio average are more passes than Inter but they do miss a lot of passes as well. This can also be noticed in the average possession stats where Inter average 53% possession and Lazio average 58%.

Best players so far

Martin Montoya is both Inter’s highest rated Whoscored player with a 7.48 rating and also the highest rated player between the two teams. Lucas Biglia is Lazio’s highest rated player with a 7.40 rating. Samir Handanovic is the only player between the two teams to appear in every game so far this season.
