Milan take on the visitors Bologna in the round 31 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Monday, April 4th at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (San Siro) (Milan).
The club is gathering strength before the decisive part of the season. It is already obvious that in the person of Stefano Pioli the club unexpectedly received a man, who was able to return the legendary Rossoneri back to the number of really strong teams in Serie A. At the same time, the team added gradually. Milan were already the leader of the standings in the last season, but then they were blown away in the winter, allowing Inter to 1st place. Now the picture has changed 180 degrees. Not everything went as well as everyone would like, from fans to owners. For example, the return to the Champions League eventually turned into the 4th place in the group, albeit in a strong company. On the other hand, it allowed to focus on the domestic arena. And there, competitors just started to allow mistakes, primarily the Nerazzurri. As a result, having not lost in 8 last matches in a row and having won three times in March, the Red-Blacks managed to gain a foothold in the 1st place. But at the same time, the gap from Napoli is now equal to 3 points, and from Inter - 6, but at the same time, the neighbor still has a match in reserve. Everything is obvious: only a series of victories will finally allow the Scudetto to be issued.

The team has a rather glorious history - not every giant can boast of having 7 Scudettos in his piggy bank. In addition, there were a couple of victories in the national cup. But all this was at least half a century ago. The last "gold" was taken in 1964, Koppa was given 10 years later. After that, Rossoblu did not even roll back to 2nd roles - at most, as now, under Mikhailovich, they manage to be Calcio's mid-table side. Now, after 29 matches, 33 points - 11 more than Venice had with Genoa. So, it is clear that they simply “will not have time” to fall into the bottom three. Perhaps this is due to the gradual deterioration of the results for Bologna. After the victory over Spezia, there were draws with Salernitana and Torino, and then - 0-1 at all with Fiorentina and Atalanta.
Last time Bologna beat this opponent in 2016. What's more, Milan are now on a 6-game win streak, including a 4-2 away win this season. The Red-Blacks cannot count on Kjaer and Daniel Maldini. Bologna will not have Michael, Santander and Nicolas Dominguez. Bookmakers are confident in the victory of the hosts - the only question is how it will be framed. It is worth looking at the option with Milan winning both in the 1st half and in the match.
Prediction for the match: Milan to win the first half and the match.
