The hosts have not been able to win any of their last 18 Serie A home against AC Milan.

Bologna are all set to lock horns with AC Milan in a Serie A 2024-25 encounter at home. The hosts are in eighth spot in the league table having won 10 of their 25 league games so far. I Rossoneri have 11 wins to their name in the same number of games. Both even have 41 points each on the table as of now.

Bologna will be at home and will be low on confidence as they have not won against AC Milan in their last 18 games as hosts. Bologna also lost their last Serie A game which was against Parma. They still have many matches left to get to the top spot in the league table but the journey is not going to be easy.

AC Milan are in the seventh spot in the Serie A table. They are already eliminated from the Champions League and they will be looking to enter the top four in the league table. They might go on to prevail against Bologna but their last result was not a positive one. With their out-of-form attack, Milan will have to come up with some interesting plays.

Players to Watch

Riccardo Orsolini (Bologna)

The Italian forward has started in less number of games for Bologna this season. The 28-year-old is the top goal scorer for Bologna having scored seven goals and assisting his team members three times in 18 league matches. Riccardo Orsolini should start for his team and he might end up being the difference maker.

Tijjani Reijnders (AC Milan)

Despite being a midfielder, Tijjani Reijnders is the top goal scorer for AC Milan in the league this season. The 26-year-old Dutch midfielder scored a goal for Milan in their last game but it was not enough. In the next Serie A match, AC Milan will have to secure three vital points if they want to stay in the race of getting to the Champions League spot for the next season.
