MILAN - Stefano Pioli's Nerazzurri returned to winning ways on Sunday, beating Empoli at the Stadio Meazza courtesy of goals from Eder and Candreva.
Let's look back at some statistics from the match with the help of our friends at Opta:

- Eder scored and provided an assist in the same Serie A match for the first time since October 2015 against Verona.
- Antonio Candreva has found the net in each of his three Serie A home games against Empoli, two for Lazio and one for Inter.
- Inter have won eight consecutive Serie A home games for the first time since May 2011, when they recorded 13 in a row.
- The Nerazzurri have found the net in each of their last 21 home games in the top flight.
- Empoli have picked up just a point from their last three league matches, conceding seven goals in the process. They had only shipped two in their previous six.
- Inter had eight shots on target against Empoli. They've only tested the opposition keeper more on three occasions this season.
