MILAN – (Statistics by Football Data) Inter are on the verge of playing their 2700th match in Serie A. That's the number the Nerazzurri will reach when they take on top-flight newcomers Sassuolo next Sunday. The figure includes all regular-season fixtures (not play-offs) since a single national league was formed in 1929/30.
Inter will be the first Italian team to reach this milestone, as they are the only club to have spent every season in the top flight.
The numbers from the first 2699 games read W1338, D757, L604, with 4532 goals for and 2793 against.
The Nerazzurri's first match in the newly formed national championship was away to Livorno on 6 October 1929. The hosts took an early lead through Palandri (6) before Rivolta (31) and Meazza (60) turned it around to seal a 2-1 victory.
16 of Inter's 18 league titles have come during the national championship era.
Javier Zanetti holds the most appearances (603 and rising) while Giuseppe Meazza is the highest goalscorer (195).
