"AC Milan will travel to the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara on Tuesday night to face a Bologna side who have been a bit hit and miss in recent Serie A fixtures. Taking the final spot on Matchday 23, Milan will hope to continue their unbeaten record in Serie A with a strong result against another European contender. Failing to do so would mean Inter's gap at the top would only increase. In other words, it is a must-win for the Scudetto race."
"After the final matchday of 2025, Bologna sat pretty comfortably in sixth. Even if a few cracks were visible, it seemed that they would be able to continue on their run into the second half of the season. However, this has not been the case. Since the turn of the year, they have only won once in Serie A - a questionable 3-2 victory against Hellas Verona - whilst their only other success came in the Europa League last week, against Maccabi Tel Aviv."
"Barring that, 2026 has certainly not been too kind to the Rossoblu. In fact, their losing four of their eight fixtures so far would make many suspect that the Rossoneri come into this game as heavy favourites. Whilst their opening three fixtures were fairly difficult, Inter (3-1), Atalanta (0-2) and Como (1-1), you would expect a European contender to have gotten more than they have so far this year."
AC Milan travel to Bologna's Stadio Renato Dall'Ara aiming to protect an unbeaten Serie A record and preserve Scudetto hopes. Milan occupy the final spot on Matchday 23 and need a strong result to prevent Inter extending their lead at the top. Bologna, managed by Vincenzo Italiano, have mixed form (W-L-D-L-W) and sit with only one Serie A win since January, plus a Europa League victory over Maccabi Tel Aviv. Riccardo Orsolini leads Bologna's league scoring on seven, while Nicolo Cambiaghi and Emil Holm have four assists each. Skorupski and Lucumi are doubts, and squad changes are likely after recent European fixtures, with Orsolini, Freuler and Castro expected among substitutes.
