No penalties in 22 league matches for Inter
Inter are one of just two Serie A sides yet to have been awarded a penalty this season, a record they share with Chievo Verona. The statistic is particularly incredible for Mazzarri's men, considering that they boast the league's fourth-best attack (38 goals). The Nerazzurri's last spot-kick was on 8 May: Alvarez missed from 12 yards in Inter 1-3 Lazio, 22 championship games ago.
Inter unbeaten in seven at home for first time in a year
The Nerazzurri are currently enjoying a seven-match unbeaten run at home in competitive fixtures (won four, drawn three), their last defeat in San Siro coming at the hands of Roma (0-3 on 5 October 2013). Inter haven't gone this long without losing on home turf since the period from September 2012 to February 2013, when they put together 11 wins and 5 draws for a 16-game streak without defeat.
Palacio & Cambiasso, Catania's nightmare double act
Rodrigo Palacio and Esteban Cambiasso have scored ten goals between them against Catania, meaning that today's visitors are the Argentine pair's second favourite target in Italy: they have netted six and four times respectively against the Sicilian team. Their favourite victims of all are Parma for the striker (nine), and Fiorentina for the midfielder (six).
Catania's last away win 11 months ago
Catania haven't tasted victory on the road since they overcame Parma 1-2 on 24 February 2013 in a Serie A meeting. In their 16 away trips since then, they have managed just three draws and 13 defeats (10 in the last 10) and have failed to pick up a single point outside Sicily all season: their last was against Torino on 19 May (2-2). Catania have also conceded in 13 consecutive away games, shipping 34 goals in the process: their last clean sheet came in a 0-0 stalemate at Chievo Verona on 14 April 2013.
