Fresh off punching their ticket to the Champions League semifinals, Inter Milan shift focus back to domestic matters as they visit Bologna at Stadio Dall'Ara on Sunday evening in their pursuit of another Serie A title.
Despite losing head coach Thiago Motta and several key players during the offseason, fifth-placed Bologna have thrived under Vincenzo Italiano, exceeding expectations with a well-balanced squad and disciplined approach.
The Emilia-Romagna club heads into their next fixture looking to bounce back after suffering a rare setback — only their fifth loss of the Serie A campaign — as they fell 2-0 in Bergamo to a struggling Atalanta side led by Gian Piero Gasperini.
Inter enter the weekend leading the Serie A standings by three points over Napoli and still have a Coppa Italia semi-final second leg against rivals AC Milan looming.
Despite that stumble on the domestic front, Simone Inzaghi's reigning Serie A champions secured a major milestone in Europe. A hard-fought 2-2 draw at San Siro against Bayern Munich was enough to see them through to the UEFA Champions League semi-finals, sealing a 4-3 aggregate triumph over the Bundesliga pace-setters.

Bologna team news
Bologna will be without the likes of Lewis Ferguson, Davide Calabria, and goalkeeper Lukasz Skorupski, while center-back Nicolo Casale is a doubt due to a shoulder issue. Federico Ravaglia will likely get the nod in goal, with either Emil Holm or Lorenzo De Silvestri filling in at right-back.
Santiago Castro and Thijs Dallinga are in contention to lead the line, supported by Riccardo Orsolini, Bologna's leading scorer, and Swiss winger Dan Ndoye. Ndoye, who netted a dramatic extra-time winner against Inter in last season’s Coppa Italia, is aiming to become the first Bologna player this century to score in five straight home league matches.
Inter team news
With fixture congestion a factor, Simone Inzaghi may opt to rotate his lineup. That opens the door for former Bologna star Marko Arnautovic to face his old club, having recently hit solid form. The Austrian striker, who tallied 24 goals in 54 league matches for Bologna, is competing for a place up front with Mehdi Taremi and Joaquin Correa if regulars Lautaro Martinez or Marcus Thuram are rested.
The Nerazzurri remain without Piotr Zielinski and Denzel Dumfries, though the Dutch wing-back is close to a return.
