You would have to go back some 31 matches to see the last time Bologna recorded a ‘big team’ scalp in Serie A on home soil at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara a report from Corriere dello Sport details.

The Rossoblu’s last victory over a ‘big team’ at home came way back in December 2015 when they beat Napoli 3-2 and their last win over a ‘big team’ away from home came the following month in January 2016 as they beat Milan.

Since then though, the Emilia-Romagnan club have endured a torrid time when up against bigger teams and they are not heading in to Saturday’s encounter with Inter in the best of form either. Filippo ‘Pippo’ Inzaghi’s side lost 1-0 to SPAL on the opening day of this season and followed it up with a goalless draw against newly promoted Frosinone at the weekend there.

Saturday evening’s match will present the Bologna players with yet another chance to end what almost seems like a curse for them.
