Bologna vs Inter Milan – Match preview and team news Inter Milan is set to face Hellas Verona in their final match of the season on Saturday evening. Cristian Chivu’s men have already secured the domestic double after clinching the Serie A title and the Coppa Italia and they will look to end the season on a high against Bologna. Bologna vs Inter Milan – Match preview and team news Date: Saturday, 23rd May.

Kick-off: 5pm BST. Venue: Stadio Renato Dall’Ara, Bologna. Bologna team news Bologna enters the final matchday of the season facing significant availability issues, particularly in their attacking and defensive compartments.

Manager Vincenzo Italiano must navigate the high-profile absence of star winger Riccardo Orsolini, who is ruled out following a left adductor muscle injury sustained recently. Further limiting Italiano’s tactical options are ongoing injuries to defenders Nicolò Casale and Martin Vitík, sidelined with calf and ankle issues respectively, while forward Nicolò Cambiaghi remains unavailable due to a muscular problem. On a positive note, the Rossoblù receive a timely defensive boost with the return of influential centre-back Jhon Lucumí, who is available for selection after serving a one-match suspension.

Inter Milan team news Newly-crowned domestic double winners Inter Milan approach the season finale with a remarkably healthy squad, leaving manager Cristian Chivu with plenty of tactical flexibility. The only major injury absentee for the Nerazzurri is midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu, who continues to recover from a persistent thigh strain. Having already secured both the Scudetto and the Coppa Italia, Chivu is heavily tipped to rotate his squad to rest key players ahead of the upcoming World Cup tournament.
