Bologna vs Inter Prediction
📢 What kind of script can we expect when Bologna host Inter at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara? Heading into Matchday 38 of Serie A, both sides find themselves with little left to play for: the Nerazzurri have long since secured the Scudetto, while the Rossoblù are locked in eighth place. Still, both clubs will be eager to wrap up their seasons on a high note.
Head-to-Head
📊 Recent head-to-head history favours Inter: across 42 meetings, the Nerazzurri have come out on top 25 times, with 8 draws and just 9 wins for Bologna. This season, the sides have faced off twice. In the semi-finals of the Italian Super Cup, the Rossoblù stunned Milan (1-1, then 3-2 on penalties), but Inter responded in Serie A with a convincing 3-1 victory.

Bologna Team Overview
🔴 Bologna will hardly consider this season a success. After two impressive campaigns-where the Rossoblù not only featured in the Champions League but also lifted the Coppa Italia-they now find themselves down in eighth place, a position that doesn’t even secure a spot in the Europa Conference League. Their slide down the table can be attributed to a disastrous second half of the campaign, with the side dropping points far too often.
🔵 Bologna still had a shot at qualifying for Europe’s third-tier competition, but to do so, they needed to beat Atalanta away by at least a two-goal margin in the previous round. The Rossoblù did manage to claim all three points, but only with a narrow 1-0 victory. In truth, it was a tightly contested match that looked destined for a goalless draw, and Bologna were rather fortunate to come away with the win.

Inter Milano Team Overview
🔵 Unlike Bologna, Inter can rightfully call this season one of their most successful campaigns in recent years. While their Champions League run ended in disappointment after a shock exit to Bodø/Glimt, the Nerazzurri have dominated domestically-clinching both the Serie A title and the Coppa Italia. With one round left to play, Inter sit on 86 points, holding a commanding 13-point lead over their closest rivals, underlining just how dominant the Milan side have been all season.
⚫ Inter have been nearly unstoppable lately. Simone Inzaghi’s men are unbeaten in their last 11 matches. However, in the previous round, the Nerazzurri slipped up at home against Verona (1-1)-a side that had already been relegated. Inter controlled proceedings from start to finish, generating 2.35 expected goals (xG), but were wasteful in front of goal. The equalizer came late on, with backup goalkeeper Raffaele Di Gennaro between the sticks for the closing stages.

Latest news
Bologna
🚫 The hosts will be without Martin Vitik, Nicolo Casale, and Nicolo Cambiaghi due to injuries. Each of these players has played a significant role for the team-some as regular starters when fit, others coming off the bench to make an impact. While these absences are certainly a blow, they aren't exactly catastrophic for the squad.
Inter Milano
✅ Inter have no injury concerns heading into the match, with the squad at full strength. The coaching staff may opt to rest several players, avoiding unnecessary fatigue ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
⚽ Goal Prediction
Although Inter have already clinched the Serie A title with three games to spare, they continue to set the standard high, regularly finding the net even with a rotated squad. The Nerazzurri have scored at least twice in eight of their last nine matches. Bologna have their own defensive issues, so backing Inter’s individual total over 1.5 goals at odds of 1.90* looks like a solid option.
🚩 Corner Prediction
If you favour set-piece markets, consider the under 10.5 corners bet at odds of 1.45*. This line has landed in six of the last seven head-to-head clashes between these sides in Bologna in Serie A. On top of that, it’s also come through in each of Inter’s previous seven away fixtures. We don’t expect this trend to change here.
🚀 Player Stats Bet
Federico Dimarco is enjoying a sensational season. He’s already broken the Serie A record for assists, and there’s still room for improvement. After starting on the bench against Verona, he could return to the starting XI this time. Backing Federico Dimarco to register an assist is available at odds of 3.15*.
😱 High-Risk Bet
Bologna and Inter have produced some thrilling encounters in recent years. In five of their last eleven meetings, there have been at least four goals scored. If you fancy a bold punt, over 4 total goals at odds of 3.80* could be worth a look.
🎯 Safe Bet
Inter rarely leave the pitch without scoring- the Nerazzurri have found the net in 24 of their last 25 Serie A matches. If you’re after a safe pick, back Inter to score at odds of 1.19*.
👀 If the Game Doesn’t Go to Plan
Many expect goals in this fixture, but there’s always a chance the match takes a different turn. With players potentially focused on avoiding injuries ahead of the 2026 World Cup, we could see a more cautious approach rather than attacking football. In that case, under 2.5 total goals at odds of 2.32* becomes a logical alternative.
*Odds are approximate and may vary across bookmakers.
Editorial Prediction
If we go strictly by the bookmakers’ odds, Inter are the clear favourites heading into this clash. However, after their surprising stumble at home against Verona, backing a straightforward result looks risky-so a smarter play is to go for the prediction of both teams to score (yes). Inter have been sensational up front this Serie A campaign, racking up an impressive 86 goals across 37 matches. Bologna, meanwhile, have shown plenty of attacking spark in their last two outings-putting three past Napoli (3-2) and then beating Atalanta, both away from home. With nothing left to play for in the league table, both sides can afford to play with freedom and put on a show for the fans in their final fixture. A bold prediction: expect a high-scoring draw, possibly finishing 2-2.
