AC Milan vs Bologna FC 1909 Prediction 14 May 2025

Milan come into the clash in strong form, having secured three consecutive Serie A victories over Venezia (2:0), Genoa (2:1), and most recently Bologna (3:1). However, despite this late push, their hopes of breaking into the Champions League spots remain slim, as they sit eighth in the table, four points off the top four. In the Cup, though, the Rossoneri have impressed with dominant wins against Sassuolo (6:1), Roma (3:1), and a dramatic two-leg triumph over Inter (1:1, 3:0).

Bologna, on the other hand, have made an inspiring run to their first Coppa Italia final in many years. They cruised past Monza (4:0), edged out Atalanta (1:0), and outclassed Empoli across two legs (3:0, 2:1). In Serie A, they’re currently seventh, but recent league results have been more modest — a goalless draw with Udinese, a 1:1 stalemate against Juventus, and the aforementioned 1:3 loss to Milan show some signs of fatigue or inconsistency.

Both sides have shown their strengths this season, and in many ways, they match up well. Bologna’s rise has been one of the stories of the campaign, while Milan still carry more weight in terms of pedigree and individual talent. That slight edge in experience and quality could very well prove decisive in a one-off final. Expect a competitive match, but Milan’s big-game know-how might just tilt it in their favor.
