Tomorrow night’s match against AC Milan will not be like any other for Vincenzo Italiano’s Bologna. “The air will be that of the play-off, of the in-or-out, of the watershed: although no one will say that it is so,” writes today’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport. A direct clash to which Bologna arrives with one certainty: at the Dall’Ara there is (almost) none for anyone.
Calendar in hand, in fact, in this championship the Rossoblù have lost only once at home at the hands of Verona, a thrilling challenge marked by Pobega’s expulsion and Castro’s final own goal. But that’s not all: “11 goals conceded as the third best defense in the league in its own theater (after Napoli and Milan), 2 goals per game on average just in the new year, numbers that tell of a place that has become magnetic and addressing for the past two years.” We will see if it will be so tomorrow night as well: more than 30,000 people are expected in the stands.
