➤ With a win in this match, Simone Inzaghi (6) would equal Helenio Herrera and Roberto Mancini among the most successful coaches in Inter’s history (both with 7 titles) since the establishment of the single-round Serie A (since 1929-30); the Piacenza-born coach has so far won six trophies with the Nerazzurri: one Serie A title (2023-24), two Coppa Italia titles (2021-22 and 2022-23), and three Italian Super Cups (2021, 2022, and 2023).
