In Reina’s 11 previous matches against Inter, playing for Lazio, Liverpool and Napoli, the Spanish veteran has collected seven clean sheets, a strong statistic that Sarri hope will be added to tomorrow.
Reina had a standout performance in the Derby della Capitale victory over Roma last month, making a variety of key saves to secure the three points for Sarri’s side.
