Bologna vs Inter

Bologna enter this match following their first win of the campaign, a narrow victory at Lecce that ended a run of five matches without a win. Before that result, they had drawn twice and lost three times, showing a tendency toward tight contests where they have struggled to keep a clean sheet. Inter maintain a strong domestic standing despite a recent setback in European competition against Club Brugge KV. Their Serie A form remains robust, highlighted by a high-scoring win over Parma and a draw at AS Roma. While they have been prolific in attack, their defensive record has been more varied across their recent outings.

History between these two sides has been competitive, with three of their last five meetings ending in a draw. Each team has claimed a single victory during this period, with Bologna winning at home in April 2025 and Inter securing a home win in January 2026.

• Inter are currently ranked first in the Serie A table while Bologna sit in fourteenth place.
• Bologna have E. Holm, R. Orsolini, A. Theate, J. Odgaard, and S. Mbangula listed as absences.
