Prediction: Inter Milan to Win Narrowly or Draw
The two teams met in the Italian Super Cup held in Saudi Arabia last month, where Inter Milan drew with Bologna in 90 minutes and eventually lost on penalties. Looking at their last five encounters, Inter Milan has surprisingly failed to win a single game—an uncommon streak for a side that has been dominant over the past two seasons. Playing at home, Inter Milan is given a -1.25 goal line in the Asian Handicap, a strong indication of optimism that they will break this curse at San Siro. However, it is equally rare for Bologna—with their impressive recent head-to-head record and solid form this season—to be underestimated to such an extent. We are optimistic that Inter Milan will either secure a narrow win or play out a draw at home.
Comprehensive Prediction Analysis:
Inter Milan:
Inter Milan has achieved 4 wins and 1 loss in their last five Serie A matches, generally holding significant advantages over non-traditional powerhouses. They have scored 9 goals in these five games, boasting a high conversion rate. However, compared to last season, Inter has weakened somewhat against top-ranked Serie A teams, suffering 2-goal defeats to Napoli and AC Milan respectively. In terms of injuries, Acerbi, Damian, Dumfries, and Boni remain sidelined. Inter Milan is likely to continue their tactical approach of combining wing and central play, with Thuram serving as the focal point for goal conversion.

Bologna:
Bologna has been a standout team in Serie A in recent years, currently sitting 7th in the table. They have secured victories against numerous strong sides over the past two seasons, including a 2-0 home win over Napoli in the first half of this league campaign, demonstrating strong competitiveness against top teams. However, Bologna’s form is less consistent compared to elite sides, as they often drop points against lower-mid-table teams like Cremonese. Traveling to Milan, Bologna is expected to stick to their defensive philosophy of compact positioning and multi-layered interceptions to disrupt the opponent’s offensive penetration.
