Report – Inter Milan Handed Major Fitness Boost Ahead Of Revenge-Poised Bologna Clash

Inter Milan received a significant fitness boost ahead of Sunday’s high-stakes Serie A home match against Bologna.

According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInter1908, Francesco Acerbi’s return to training bolstered confidence at Appiano Gentile yesterday.

Cristian Chivu will be keen to settle the score with Vincenzo Italiano when Inter take on Bologna at San Siro this weekend.

Indeed, Bologna prevented the 45-year-old from lifting his first piece of silverware as Inter manager a fortnight ago.

Eager to avenge that Supercoppa Italiana disappointment, Inter will face the Rossoblu in high spirits.

In addition to beating Atalanta last weekend, Inter welcomed Francesco Acerbi back from injury yesterday.

Despite posting their eighth league clean sheet of the season in Bergamo, Acerbi’s recovery comes as a boost for the Nerazzurri.

Furthermore, the 37-year-old center-back could immediately reclaim his place in defense at the expense of Yann Bisseck.

Therefore, he could line up alongside Alessandro Bastoni and Manuel Akanji in Chivu’s traditional back three.
