Matchday 36 of Serie A sees Bologna welcome AC Milan on Wednesday, 14 May 2025. The game kicks off at San Siro at 21:00 CEST in Italy, Germany, France and Spain, and at 20:00 BST in the UK. Fans can expect a high-intensity encounter as both sides battle for very different objectives.
Bologna arrive still in the hunt for a top-four finish, while Milan have their sights set on the Coppa Italia final next week. With momentum swinging and key players returning from injury or suspension, this fixture promises drama from the first whistle.
Comment les deux équipes abordent-elles ce match ?
Bologna have shown resilience in recent weeks, securing important points against Napoli, Inter Milan and Juventus. Under Vincenzo Italiano they’ve deployed a compact 4-3-3 system that relies on quick breaks and set-piece threats. With just a point separating them from the Champions League spots, the Rossoblu cannot afford any slip-ups at home.
AC Milan, meanwhile, have enjoyed an upturn in form since switching to a 3-4-2-1 formation under Sergio Conceicao. They’ve won three in a row across all competitions, including a statement Coppa Italia semi-final victory over Inter Milan. Although their league campaign has been inconsistent, the Rossoneri look sharper and more fluid going forward.
Nos prévisions
We expect a tense opening period as Bologna press high and Milan look to play through the thirds. The hosts will be confident on home soil, but Milan’s ability to hit teams on the counter could prove decisive. Both defences have shown vulnerability, so goals appear likely.
Ultimately, we lean towards an AC Milan victory by a narrow margin. Their recent form and tactical balance give them a slight edge, though a draw would be no surprise if Bologna capitalise on their attacking moments.

Compositions possibles
AC Milan are likely to field a 3-4-2-1 with Mike Maignan in goal, a back three of Fikayo Tomori, Gabbia and Pavlović, and a midfield quartet featuring Jiménez and Loftus-Cheek on the flanks. Christian Pulisic and João Félix should support lone striker Luka Jović in attack.
Bologna should stick to a 4-3-3 formation with Skorupski between the sticks, a back four of Calabria, Beukema, Lucumi and Lykogiannis, and a midfield trio including Freuler and Ferguson. Riccardo Orsolini, Fabbian and Cambiaghi are expected to back up Thijs Dallinga leading the line.
