Goal Statistics

Inter Milan's forwards have been superb of late, scoring 2 goals or more in 5 consecutive Serie A outings. A PG of 2.1 suggests that run should continue on Sunday evening.

Inter Milan's defensive record is very strong, Simone Inzaghi's men having conceded 1 or less in 8 consecutive Serie A games. An average PG rating of 1.1 for Empoli makes sense in this context.
