Both Inter Milan and Bologna head into this Coppa Italia encounter knowing that they are just two matches away from reaching the final of the competition.
Visiting Bologna go into the tie with one of the poorest away records in Serie A.
From 10 outings, they have lost eight of those, winning the other two. In contrast, hosting Inter have lost just twice in front of their own supporters at the San Siro, winning six.
Inter coach Andrea Stramaccioni may make a handful of changes to his starting lineup for the clash, with Diego Milito and Walter Gargano both thought to be in contention for a role.
Meanwhile, former West Ham United striker Alessandro Diamanti should be included for Bologna, who are also likely to hand a start to veteran frontman Alberto Gilardino.
