Inter Milan make the trip to Bologna on Sunday looking to strengthen their hold of second place in the Serie A standings.
At a time when the visitors sit 15 points adrift of leaders Napoli, Bologna occupy eighth spot after a strong run of form since the turn of the year.
We say: Bologna 1-3 Inter Milan
Despite the difference in league positions, this has all the makings of being one of the more competitive fixtures in Serie A this weekend. Nevertheless, although we feel that Bologna will push their more illustrious opponents for much of the encounter, the visitors' extra quality could shine through during the latter stages.

We say: Salernitana 1-2 Monza
With Monza having lost some momentum in their last game, Salernitana will fancy their chances of getting back on track. Nevertheless, the visitors have the quality and experience to shake off that disappointment and battle their way to another three points.

Both teams will be aiming to put an end to lengthy winless streaks in Serie A when Udinese host Spezia on Sunday.
The visitors head into the weekend only two points clear of the relegation zone, while Udinese are clinging onto a top half position.
We say: Udinese 1-1 Spezia
With both teams struggling for wins in recent times, we can envisage a share of the spoils between two sides lacking confidence at present.
Udinese have drawn five of their last seven matches at home, while Spezia are likely to be desperate to impress their new manager by avoiding defeat.

AC Milan host Atalanta BC on Sunday in what could prove to be a crucial battle in terms of shaping Serie A's top four complexion this season.
The hosts head into the match three points clear of their forthcoming opponents, but Atalanta would move ahead of Milan on head-to-head should they be able to secure a victory at San Siro.
We say: AC Milan 1-0 Atalanta BC
Atalanta are often more dangerous away from home, especially in big matches due to their proficiency in transition, but they appear to have lost form at a crucial time in the season.
Milan, on the other hand, have rediscovered the winning grit that saw them reclaim Serie A's title last season, and we can envisage them edging a tight victory on Sunday.
