Bologna FC 1909 vs FC Internazionale Milano Prediction Serie A · Oct 17, 2026

Analysis

Bologna arrive in a genuine crisis: 18th in the table with 2 points from 5 games, no wins, 3 goals scored and 6 conceded. All three of those goals came at home (1-1 with Torino, 2-2 with Sassuolo), while they lost 0-1 at Napoli, 0-1 at Atalanta and 0-1 at home to Lazio. Inter are 2nd on 13 points from 4 wins and a draw with a league-high 15 goals, but their 8 conceded is by far the weakest defensive record in the top four, as the 5-3 win over Udinese and the 3-2 against Napoli show. The 2-2 draw away at Roma proves this Inter side rarely closes a game down, and the only recent meeting between these two finished 3-3. Bologna have enough at home to score, but a side averaging 0.6 goals per match cannot be trusted to win it. Inter take the three points in an open game: 1-2.
