Bologna v Inter Milan Prediction, Tips and Bet Builder

Serie A champions Inter Milan celebrated the title at home to Hellas Verona last week which means there is little on the line in their finale at Bologna.

To emphasise the point, Nerazzurri boss Cristian Chivu has already named four key men who will sit out the trip and hinted that others may not travel as well.

The hosts, who are looking to finish with three wins in a row in Serie A, have to fancy their chances of giving home fans at the Renato Dall'Ara something to savour heading into the summer.

Bologna v Inter Milan Prediction

Best Bet: Bologna to Win @ 13/5

Inter boss Chivu gave Denzel Dumfries, Manuel Akanji, Hasan Calhanoglu and Marcel Thuram the afternoon off last week and the upshot was a tame 1-1 draw at home to relegated Verona.

The Nerazzurri were far the better side but looked understandably disinterested and, with the same four players not featuring again this week and other World Cup-bound stars also set for a rest, the champions are weakened further.

That is a huge plus for the eighth-placed Rossoblu, who have shown their teeth with a 3-2 win at Napoli and 1-0 victory at Atalanta over the past two weekends, and who look way overpriced given the potential line-ups.

Alternative Bet: Ricardo Orsolini first team scorer @ 11/4

Bologna forward Ricardo Orsolini has finished a fine season in style with goals at both Napoli and Atalanta.

That's 14 for the season now for the 29-year-old former Juventus youngster in all competitions, who can make it three in a row with the opener against a defensively light Inter.

Bologna v Inter Milan Bet Builder Tip

• Over 2 goals

• Both teams to receive 2+ cards - No

• Bologna to win either half

• Over 10.5 shots on target

  Pays 13/2

Inter's 1-1 draw at home to Verona last week, a game which mattered to neither side, produced 31 shots, 11 on target.

Verona, who have been doomed to the drop for a few weeks, even had five efforts on target, so Bologna have to be expecting opportunities against this reshuffled Inter side.

To that end - and given Inter will always be a threat themselves - make over two goals the first component of the bet builder.

There were also only two yellows - both for Verona players - and with nothing riding on this game take both teams not to receive 2-plus cards.

The Rossoblu to win either half is the minimum expectation, while over 10.5 shots on target plays to the idea that a nice, relaxed affair can produce a decent game.

Inter average 6.1 shots on target per game and Bologna can seriously up their average of 3.8 against a weaker opponent.
