👉The interview

👉Defeat on penalties (5-3). Thiago: “Shame.”

Empolazo

Juve nightmare: out of Coppa Italia and Champions League in seven days

Motta: “We must only apologize.” Decisive penalty kick errors of Vlahovic and Yildiz. Decisive Marianucci. Empoli in history.

👉Bologna-Milan recovery (20:45): Santiago Costa against Santiago Giménez
Here Dall’Ara, the derby of the Saints

Italiano looking for the fourth consecutive home win: he can take the sixth spot. Conceiçao under pressure picks Leao and Pulisic. Joao Felix on the bench.

Front Page Tutto Sport, Thursday 27 February 2025

👉Inter towards the big match, amid unresolved cases and controversy
Lautaro-referees, Scudetto controversy

With a vocal proof of the “blasphemy” the captain’s disqualification would arrive, but after the challenge with the Azzurri. In the first leg, Conte-Marotta-De Laurentiis exchanged blows. Then Inzaghi blurted out. From the Senate: no growth decree, but green light for stadiums and betting.

👉Juve: incredible and humiliating defeat against Empoli.
Motta disaster

Horrible Bianconeri performance, except for a Thuram wonder goal. Then the Tuscans qualify on penalties, with mistakes from Vlahovic and Yildiz. The third target failed by Motta, who is at risk. “I feel shame, I hope for strong criticism, the fans were gentle, I apologize.” Empoli in the semis with Bologna: historic feat!

👉Leader Milinkovic Savic
There’s Vanja in the wood: “Toro will grow”

“Turnaround with a 4-2-3-1 system, we go ahead! I don’t think about criticism; I am just myself. I am the same as four years ago. The best penalty saved? Against Atalanta.”

👉Recovery and then Lazio: 180′ of fire
Milan needs a shock in Bologna for the Champions League.

Conceiçao’s team at the crossroads: fourth spot or revolution. Everyone on the brink, starting with the coach.

Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
AC Milan, 7th position with 41 points and a positive goal difference of +11
Bologna, 8th position with 41 points and a positive goal difference of +7

Bologna won the rescheduled Week 9 match with a 2-1 on Thursday, February 27, 2025, at the Renato Dall’Ara Stadium in Bologna, Italy.  Coach Vincenzo Italiano’s squad climbs the standings to 44 points, surpassing Milan and closing in on fourth place, which is crucial for Champions League qualification. Surely, it was a tough night for Milan as their dreams of reaching the European zone slipped further away.  With this win, Bologna now sits in 6th place, while Milan stays in 8th with 41 points. Ouch! The key contributions from Santiago Castro and Ndoye scoring for Bologna. Leao’s goal, which briefly put Milan ahead at 1-0, ultimately didn’t change the outcome.

Stats: Bologna has achieved a home victory over AC Milan in Serie A for the first time since March 10, 2002, with a score of 2-0, thanks to goals from Salvatore Fresi and Julio Cruz.

In the upcoming match, Bologna will take on Cagliari, while Milan is set to face Lazio.

The Rossoneri are looking to bounce back after a loss in Turin against Torino. Bologna is eager to recover from an unexpected defeat to Parma.

The match …

Milan took the lead in the 43rd minute when Rafael Leão, the Portuguese forward, found the back of the net with a left-footed shot aimed at the center. The assist came from Mexican forward Santiago Giménez, showcasing their impressive teamwork!

Image

In the 48th minute, Bologna brought the game back to a tie as Santiago Castro netted a goal with a right-footed shot from close range, placing it in the bottom right corner. Giovanni Fabbian provided the assist. The score is now Bologna 1 – 1 Milan.

Image

Bologna clinched the lead in the 82nd minute when Dan Ndoye netted a close-range goal with his right foot, thanks to an assist from Nicolò Cambiaghi. The score is now Bologna 2, Milan 1.

Stats before the game:

Milan has an impressive record against Bologna. They are unbeaten in their last 17 Serie A encounters, with 13 wins and 4 draws. The last time Bologna triumphed over Milan was on January 6, 2016, when they won 1-0 at the Meazza thanks to a goal from Emanuele Giaccherini. The Rossoneri have only experienced longer unbeaten streaks against three teams in the top flight: Catania (26), Chievo (25), and SPAL (26).

On the other hand, Bologna managed to secure a draw in their most recent match against Milan in Serie A, finishing 2-2 on January 27, 2024. They haven’t gone two consecutive matches without a loss against the Rossoneri since the 2011-2012 season, when they recorded two draws under coach Stefano Pioli.

Buy Serie A tickets

Excluding the first matchday, Bologna and Milan (both 41 points in the current championship) face each other in a match with exactly the same points in the standings for the first time since the 16th matchday of 2017/18 (21 points each in that case): the Rossoneri won 2-1 at the Meazza on that occasion.

Bologna have not found a home win against Milan in 18 consecutive games in Serie A (5D, 13P).  The last home win for the Rossoblu against the Diavolo dates back to 10 March 2002 (2-0, goals by Salvatore Fresi and Julio Cruz).  Only against Juventus (21, streak still ongoing) have the Emilians recorded a longer home streak without a win in the top flight.
After the defeat in the most recent match against Parma, Bologna could lose two games in a row in Serie A for the first time in over two years, or since January 2023 (against Roma and Atalanta in that case).

Bologna are unbeaten in 15 of their last 16 home league games (W7 D8).  Their only defeat in that period coming on December 30 against Hellas Verona. In addition, the Emilians have won their last three games at the Dall’Ara and have not achieved four consecutive home wins in Serie A since February 2024.

Serie A Standing BEFORE the game
Bologna, 8th position with 41 points and a positive goal difference of +9
Parma, 18th position with 20 points and a negative goal difference of -15

The Derby dell’Emilia is set. Parma won the Serie A Week 26 on Saturday, February 22, 2025, at the Ennio Tardini Stadium in Parma, Italy. Parma secured a solid 2-0 victory over Bologna, leaving no room for doubt. Bologna, despite their energetic efforts, fell short against a well-structured and shrewd Parma team. Chivu certainly made a good debut with this win. The goals came from Bonny and Sohm, with Dennis Man also making a positive impact after coming on. Bologna, on the other hand, had a disappointing performance. In the upcoming Serie A match, Parma will take on Udinese, while Bologna will face Cagliari.

Parma bounce back after a narrow 0-1 loss to Roma, while Bologna comes into the game with momentum from a thrilling 3-2 victory over Torino.

Cristian Chivu is making his coaching debut for Parma in the match against Bologna, following the departure of former coach Fabio Pecchia.

Parma gained the advantage in the 37th minute when Ange-Yoan Bonny successfully converted a penalty, sending a right-footed shot into the bottom left corner. The penalty was awarded after a foul by Sam Beukema.

In the 78th minute, Parma extended their lead to 2-0. Simon Sohm found the back of the net with a left-footed shot that curled into the top right corner, thanks to an assist from Dennis Man.

✅Stats before the game

Bologna has gone unbeaten in their last 10 Serie A encounters with Parma, recording 4 wins and 6 draws. The last time Parma triumphed over Bologna in the top division was on December 22, 2012, when they came back to win 2-1 at the Dall’Ara, thanks to goals from Jaime Valdés and Nicola Sansone after Frederik Sörensen had initially scored for Bologna.

Bologna also secured a victory in their most recent away match against Parma, winning 3-0 on February 7, 2021, but they have yet to achieve back-to-back away wins against the Gialloblù in Serie A. In the last five derbies between teams from Emilia-Romagna in Serie A, the home side has remained unbeaten, with 2 wins and 3 draws, following a period where the away teams had claimed five victories in the previous seven matches.

Buy Serie A tickets

In the 2025 calendar year, Parma has the unfortunate distinction of having the fewest points in Serie A, managing only two points from seven matches, a record they share with Empoli. Specifically, the Crociati have suffered four straight losses, marking the first time this has happened in the current season.

The last time they experienced five consecutive defeats in Serie A was between April and May 2021, when they lost nine matches in total. On a brighter note, Bologna (3 wins, 4 draws) is one of three teams that remain unbeaten in Serie A since the start of 2025, alongside Roma and Napoli. The Emilians are on track to avoid defeat in their first eight games of a calendar year in Serie A for the first time since 2005, when they recorded four wins and four draws.
