Benevento-Inter 1-2, Brozovic brace seals Inter win

Welcome to our live coverage of Benevento-Inter

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW AHEAD OF THE KICK-OFF

Inter’s last game against a side from Campania other than Napoli saw the Nerazzurri losing (2-0 vs Salernitana in April 1999).
 
Before Benevento, only two teams had started a Serie A campaign losing each of their first six games: Legnano in 1951/52 and Venezia in 1949/50. Both were newly promoted teams, and both were relegated.
 
This is Inter’s best start to a Serie A campaign since 2002/03, when they finished second in the table behind Juventus.
 
Despite facing 78 shots, Inter boast the best defence of this competition (only two goals conceded so far).
 
Inter have already scored three headed goals in this campaign, including D’Ambrosio’s winner last weekend against Genoa – that’s currently a league record.
 
Benevento haven’t scored a single goal in 525 minutes of Serie A action, despite attempting an average of 15 shots per game.
 
Benevento have the worst defence so far this season (16 goals conceded).
 
Pietro Iemmello scored a brace in his last appearance against Inter in Serie A.
