Bologna vs Inter prediction 23.05.2026 | Serie A

Bologna have another solid season. However, even if they win on Saturday, the team from Stadio Renato Dell'Ara will remain a few points short and will not participate in the continental competitions next year. Bologna played well recently. They are unbeaten in the last three matches. In the most recent outing, Bologna won 1-0 on the road against Atalanta. The teams were pretty even throughout the game, but the guests' better efficiency was enough for all three points.

Bologna failed to qualify for the European football, but the head coach, Vincenzo Italiano, still feels that the season was solid enough. After a victory in the previous game, they said, "Today we've achieved our fifteenth away win of the season, a great achievement, in line with our performances on the road all year. I congratulate my players on their performance, just as I did a week ago in Naples: we didn't manage to qualify for Europe, but I still think the season is positive."

Kevin Bonifazi is injured and will not play on Saturday evening against Inter. Also, Nicolo Cambiaghi, Nicolo Casale, and Martin Vitik are questionable.

Inter won their 21st Scudetto this season. They had some problems during the campaign, but they will eventually end up with 10+ points more than the closest rival in the standings. Inter were excellent in the previous weeks, with eight wins in the last ten matches across all competitions. In the most recent outing, they played 1-1 at home against Verona. The hosts were significantly the better side, but they struggled on offense, and eventually the guests secured a surprising point. 

Inter won Serie A and Coppa Italia this season, and although they didn't impress in the Champions League, the campaign was good enough. After a successful year, the board decided to continue with Cristian Chivu as their head coach, who will extend his contract until 2028. 

According to the reports, Cristian Chivu will likely rest all players who will participate in the upcoming World Cup and fill up the team with youngsters. That means that Inter will be without Marcus Thuram, Lautaro Martinez, Petar Sucic, Manuel Akanji, Hakan Calhanoglu, Ange-Yoan Bonny and maybe a few more on Saturday in Bologna.
