Inter almost unbeatable in Champions League this season
Opta’s Supercomputer seems to believe that Inter have only a 43.4 per cent chance of beating Paris Saint-Germain to the Champions League trophy this evening.
However, the same statistical analysis shows why that would be a surprising outcome looking at their performances in the tournament so far.
In an incredible stat, it is pointed out that Simone Inzaghi’s men were trailing for only 1.2 per cent of their time on the pitch in the Champions League this season.
Even more remarkable, the longest spell they had in a losing situation was 370 seconds.
That was the time after Barcelona took a 3-2 lead at San Siro and before Francesco Acerbi’s equaliser to force extra time, where Inter went on to win 4-3.
The one and old defeat was 1-0 away to Bayer Leverkusen on December 10, with a goal scored in stoppages by Nordi Mukiele.
Instead, Inter were in a leading situation 50.8 per cent of the time in the competition.
