Latest AC Milan vs Bologna squad information
AC Milan will be without Rafael Leao due to suspension. However, Tammy Abraham has returned to training after a thigh injury and will compete for a starting spot alongside Luka Jovic and Santiago Gimenez.
Defender Emerson Royal has also recovered from a long-term injury and could be included in the squad, while Youssouf Fofana (foot), Warren Bondo (ankle) and Riccardo Sottil (thigh) are all absent.
Joao Felix and Kyle Walker – two players who only came off the bench against Genoa – are competing for a starting spot. With the top 7 difficult to break into, Coach Conceicao can rotate the squad.
Coach Vincenzo Italiano, on the other hand, is almost certain to field his strongest lineup. Santiago Castro – who scored the opening goal in the first leg – could be recalled, although Thijs Dallinga is currently the first choice up front.
Emil Holm is still injured, so the right-back position will be a competition between Lorenzo De Silvestri and former Milan captain Davide Calabria.

Latest football commentary AC Milan vs Bologna
AC Milan are ending a turbulent season with an impressive run of form, winning four of their last five games thanks to a new tactical system. After sacking Paulo Fonseca mid-season, Sergio Conceicao took charge and quickly led the team to the Italian Super Cup. However, they were soon knocked out of Europe and continued to struggle in Serie A.
Milan recently beat rivals Inter to reach the Coppa Italia final, and then followed that up with two consecutive away wins, with Rafael Leao – freed from defensive duties in a 3-4-2-1 – scoring the winner in a 2-1 win over Genoa, marking another comeback under Conceicao.
The red-and-black outfit are now aiming to make it three consecutive Serie A wins for the first time since September, when they embark on a “double battle” with Bologna – first in the league, then in the Coppa Italia final.
Although hopes of qualifying for Europe via Serie A have faded, Milan still have a clear chance: if they beat Bologna in Rome next week, they will win the Coppa Italia for the first time in 22 years and thereby secure a place in European competition.
As for Bologna, coach Vincenzo Italiano's team just had an important turning point when ending a 13-match winless streak against Milan in Serie A with a 2-1 comeback victory in February. If they win all 3 points again, they will do the "double" against Milan in a season for the first time since 1940.
A win would give Bologna a psychological advantage ahead of the cup final, while also keeping their Champions League hopes alive. After a 1-1 draw with Juventus last weekend, they are seventh on 62 points – in a very tight race with three other teams separated by just one point for fourth place.
The next 10 days will be decisive for Bologna's season, with two games against Milan and a derby against Fiorentina. With three games remaining, they can still break the club's points record in the 3 points/game era (68 points, last season).
However, Bologna have failed to score in their last two away games (lost 0-2 to Atalanta, drew 0-0 with Udinese) and now have to travel to a resurgent Milan.
