Inter have a positive record when facing Roma under Marco Di Bello, the referee for this evening’s Coppa Italia quarter-final clash, and will hope that this precedent can be helpful.

This is highlighted by Italian news outlet FCInterNews, who note that the Nerazzurri have never lost a match against the Giallorossi in which Di Bello has been the official in charge.

Di Bello has frequently taken charge of clashes between the Nerazzurri and the Giallorossi, with the official having refereed their Serie A clash in December, a match which Inter won by a decisive scoreline of 3-0.

Meanwhile, he has also refereed two other clashes between Inter and Roma at the Stadio Olimpico, both of which ended in 2-2 draws.

In general, the Nerazzurri have a good record when playing in matches refereed by Di Bello, with the referee having been in charge of eleven matches involving Inter, with the Nerazzurri winning seven and the other four having been draws.
