Data analysts Opta took to Social Media to reveal the extent of Inter’s dominance over Genoa in recent seasons, with a stat emphasising their phenomenal defensive record.

The Nerazzurri were held to a goalless draw in Serie A on Friday, but have now managed to avoid conceding against the Grifone in eight consecutive encounters.

As per Opta’s tweet, this is the second time Inter have enjoyed such a run against a single opponent, with their record standing at 11 clean sheets against Reggina.

“Inter have kept the clean sheet in eight successive meetings against a single opponent for the second time in their Serie A history – also against Reggina (11 in a row between 2003 and 2008). Wall,” Opta tweeted.
