Vincenzo Italiano will renew hostilities with Inter Milan, but tonight will be his first clash against the Nerazzurri as Bologna manager.
According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, the omens don’t look good for the reigning Serie A champions, calling for extreme caution.
Injuries to star midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu and Henrikh Mkhitaryan are worrying enough.
Furthermore, Simone Inzaghi is dealing with Davide Frattesi’s turmoil.
Inter will take on familiar opponents in a high-stakes league fixture amid those piling off-field distractions.
Though 14 points separate the teams before the kickoff, Bologna’s visit ought to test Inter’s title credentials.
After back-to-back 6-1 home wins, Inter shared the spoils with Bologna in a dramatic 2-2 draw at the San Siro last term.
Moreover, the Rossoblu ousted Inzaghi’s charges from the Coppa Italia after extra time later in the season.
Those victories form part of Bologna’s decent run of avoiding defeat in three of their last four matches against Inter.
Meanwhile, Italiano is an old foe. The experienced tactician inspired Fiorentina to a 1-0 win on this ground in 2022/23.
Therefore, Inter must not take this showdown lightly.
Luckily for Inzaghi, Marcus Thuram is back to full fitness and will partner up with Lautaro Martinez in attack.
