Edin Dzeko made 260 appearances for Roma, scoring 119 goals - only Francesco Totti (307) and Roberto Pruzzo (138) have scored more in Roma’s history in all competitions.

Arturo Vidal's first "Italian" brace came against Roma in April 2012 with Juventus in Serie A; the Chilean midfielder scored four goals against the Giallorossi, but all four came with Juventus, while he never scored in the two games played with Inter.

Inter and Roma have met four times in the Coppa Italia quarter-finals and on three occasions the Nerazzurri progressed - the only exception was in 1986, the year in which the Giallorossi won the trophy.

Inter have lost only two of their 11 home games against Roma in the Coppa Italia (W8 D1): the first (in 1937) and the last (in 2013), with Mattia Destro netting a brace against them in the most recent defeat.

Since 2004-05, Inter and Roma have met 13 times in the Coppa Italia, making it the most played fixture in this period in the competition – there have been seven Nerazzurri wins and four for the Giallorossi (D2).
