Bologna vs Inter Milan Prediction and Analysis: Underdogs rewrite the script.

Latest team news for Bologna vs Inter Milan

Coach Simone Inzaghi may rotate the Inter squad on Sunday, after key players had a busy midweek. Reserve players like Marko Arnautovic – the former Bologna striker – are ready to play.

Arnautovic previously scored 24 goals in 54 Serie A matches for Bologna, and is currently in good form. He will compete for a starting spot with Mehdi Taremi and Joaquin Correa, should Lautaro Martinez or Marcus Thuram be rested.

Inter are currently only missing Piotr Zielinski and Denzel Dumfries – but Dumfries is getting closer to his return.

On the home side, Bologna will continue to be without Lewis Ferguson, Davide Calabria, and first-choice goalkeeper Lukasz Skorupski. In addition, center-back Nicolo Casale is also uncertain to recover from a shoulder injury.

Emil Holm and Lorenzo De Silvestri will compete for the right-back spot to replace Calabria, while Federico Ravaglia is likely to start in goal.

Up front, Santiago Castro and Thijs Dallinga continue to compete for the center forward position, supported by top scorer Riccardo Orsolini and Swiss winger Dan Ndoye.

Ndoye scored the winning goal in extra time against Inter in the Coppa Italia last season, and this time he aims to become the first Bologna player in the 21st century to score in five consecutive home Serie A games.

Latest predicted lineups for Bologna vs Inter Milan

Bologna:
Ravaglia; Holm, Beukema, Lucumi, Miranda; Freuler, Aebischer; Orsolini, Odgaard, Ndoye; Castro

Inter Milan:
Sommer; Bisseck, De Vrij, Bastoni; Zalewski, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Martinez, Arnautovic

Latest football match prediction: Bologna vs Inter Milan

Leading 2-1 after a dramatic first leg in Germany, Inter Milan staged a successful comeback despite conceding the first goal in the second leg at San Siro on Wednesday, securing a 4-3 aggregate victory over the Bundesliga champions.

Captain Lautaro Martinez and former Bayern defender Benjamin Pavard both scored within three minutes of each other, setting up a thrilling semi-final clash against La Liga leaders Barcelona.

Having finished as Champions League runners-up two years ago, Inter – a three-time European champion – are now dreaming of a treble. Next week, they will play the second leg of the Coppa Italia semi-final against their city rivals AC Milan. Meanwhile, in Serie A, Simone Inzaghi's team remains at the top of the table, with Napoli being the only remaining major obstacle in their race to defend the Scudetto.

Currently, Inter are unbeaten in 13 consecutive matches across all competitions. Last weekend, they easily beat Cagliari 3-1 at home – Martinez continued his scoring form, showing that his top form has returned.

With this result, Inter have surpassed the 70-goal mark in the current Serie A season – only the third time in 60 years they have achieved this. On average, Inter have scored more than two goals per game this season.

However, after a run of eight consecutive away wins (including seven clean sheets), the Nerazzurri have only won one of their last six away matches in the domestic league.

With their squad gradually affected by age and injuries, their away form has declined significantly – ranking 10th in the away performance rankings – and winning against Bologna at Dal'Ara promises to be a difficult challenge.

Since their crushing 1-6 defeat at the end of 2022, Bologna have become a much more difficult opponent for Inter, losing only once in their last four meetings in league and cup competitions.

The thrilling 2-2 draw in January marked the beginning of an impressive run of form for the Emilia-based team, as they reached the Coppa Italia semi-finals and climbed into the top four of Serie A.

A run of six consecutive wins across all competitions brought Bologna close to the Coppa Italia final – where they could face Inter again – but last weekend they suffered a setback when they were defeated by Atalanta – a Champions League rival – in Bergamo.

Currently, Vincenzo Italiano's team is two points behind Juventus, who are in fourth place, with only six rounds remaining.

With a tough remaining schedule – facing AC Milan, Fiorentina, and Juventus – Bologna cannot afford to lose two consecutive Serie A matches for the first time since January 2023.

Therefore, Sunday's match will be crucial in terms of morale – especially if they can pull off an upset against the league leaders.
