AC Milan and Bologna lock horns in the Coppa Italia final on Wednesday night at the iconic Stadio Olimpico in Rome, with both sides chasing a long-awaited piece of domestic silverware and a route back into European competition.

With Milan last winning the Coppa Italia in 2003, and Bologna not since 1974, this is a historic shot at glory for two sides who’ve battled through contrasting seasons but now stand just 90 minutes from triumph.

🔴⚫Milan Aim to Lift Elusive Trophy & Book European Spot| Milan Win = 2.98💵

Milan entered the final on a four-match winning streak across all competitions— their best run in over a year— by securing a thrilling 3-1 comeback win over Bologna last week in Serie A.

That form reflects a tactical shift under Sergio Conceicao that sparked late-season life, and now it’s presented them with another route to Europe as a victory in the Coppa Italia final would secure a spot in the Europa League.

With Supercoppa Italiana glory already secured in January, the Rossoneri seek a rare domestic double and are undefeated in their last five Coppa Italia matches. They also knocked out rivals Inter in the semis (4-1 agg), adding fire to their title pursuit.

🔵🔴Bologna Hoping for First Coppa in 51 Years & More| Bologna Win = 2.65💵

Bologna’s impressive run to the final has lifted the club into rarefied territory. Their path included a 5-1 semi-final demolition of Empoli and a shock victory over Atalanta, highlighting their attacking depth and ability to take chances.

Despite recent Serie A stumbles, including a 3-1 loss to Milan on Friday, Vincenzo Italiano’s team is unbeaten in all four Coppa Italia matches this season and remains unpredictable, especially with players like Riccardo Orsolini and Thijs Dallinga in form.

The Rossoblu are seeking just their third Coppa Italia triumph. With Champions League qualification now in jeopardy, winning this title could offer a dramatic shortcut to European football and complete a fairytale season.

🗝️Key Players & Team News📰:

AC Milan’s 3-4-2-1 formation will be spearheaded by Gimenez or Tammy Abraham, supported by the duo of Leão (returning after serving a suspension) and Pulisic.

Fikayo Tomori is fit again to start, while only Bondo (ankle) and Sottil (thigh) are confirmed absentees.

For Bologna, Thijs Dallinga will lead the front line, with Riccardo Orsolini—15 goals this season—cutting in from the right. Dan Ndoye, Cambiaghi and Dominguez are options for the left, while Emil Holm returns at right-back to reinforce the defence.

Premier League champions Liverpool welcome Arsenal to Anfield on Sunday for a top-of-the-table clash that will have not only points vital for the Gunners but also pride at stake.

While Arne Slot's men have already sealed the title, Arsenal arrive with Champions League qualification still hanging in the balance. Anfield, however, hasn’t been a kind place to them for over a decade.

🔴🔴Liverpool Out to Finish Strong as Farewell Tour Begins | Home Win = 2.10💵

The Reds may have suffered a 3-1 loss at Chelsea last week, but with the league title already secured, their focus has shifted to hitting the 90-point mark and giving departing stars a worthy send-off.

Arne Slot's side is gunning for an eighth consecutive home league win. They've netted at least twice in 14 of their last 15 home games since a shock September loss to Nottingham Forest.

This clash marks the penultimate home game for Real Madrid-bound Trent Alexander-Arnold and a few other players who might be headed elsewhere after this season.

🔴⚪Arsenal Hope to Give Gunners Something to Smile About | Away Win = 3.71💵

Arsenal are in danger of slipping out of the top four following three straight defeats, including a painful 3-1 UCL semi-final aggregate loss to PSG that extended their European drought.

The Gunners have now dropped 21 points from winning positions—tied for their worst-ever mark in a Premier League season. Their recent form has undone much of their earlier campaign momentum.

They haven’t won at Anfield since 2012, and despite a five-game unbeaten run vs Liverpool in the league, this could be their toughest test yet, given their fragile confidence and Liverpool’s form at home.

🗝️Key Players & Team News📰

Liverpool are missing Joe Gomez (hamstring) and Tyler Morton (shoulder), but otherwise boast a clean bill of health.

Van Dijk is set to become just the fourth Dutchman with 300 Premier League appearances. TAA is expected to start from the bench.

Arsenal welcome back Calafiori, who may start over the tired Lewis-Skelly. However, Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Magalhães, Tomiyasu, and Havertz remain sidelined, limiting Mikel Arteta’s options.

🔢Match Stats & Betting Odds | Draw = 3.79💵

⚽ Liverpool has scored 2+ goals in 14 of their last 15 home league games. | Main Market: Early Payout (Home/Liverpool Win) = 2.10

⚽ Arsenal are unbeaten in five Premier League games vs Liverpool, but last won at Anfield in 2012. | Main Market: Double Chance (Away/Draw) = 1.75

⚽ The last five league meetings between these two sides have featured both teams scoring. | Main Market: Over 2.5 Goals = 1.73

Liverpool’s home dominance meets Arsenal’s desperation in a contest fuelled by pride, history, and Champions League ambition.

Expect an emotionally charged battle in what could be a defining moment for Arteta’s campaign.

Fiorentina return to Stadio Artemio Franchi on Thursday needing to overturn a 2-1 first-leg deficit in their UEFA Conference League semifinal against an in-form Real Betis.

The Italians are aiming to reach a third consecutive Conference League final, while Betis chase a first-ever appearance in a European final after their gritty win in Seville last week.

🟣Fiorentina Hope to Complete Comeback | Home Win = 2.29💵

Despite trailing after the first leg, Fiorentina remain very much in the tie thanks to captain Luca Ranieri’s crucial away goal. The Viola have shown resilience throughout this European campaign and will bank on their home crowd to lift them.

Raffaele Palladino’s side suffered a 1-0 Serie A defeat to Roma on Sunday, failing to score despite good chances from Moise Kean and Rolando Mandragora. Pressure is mounting, but their record of back-to-back finals speaks to their knockout pedigree.

💚Real Betis Aim to Seal First Final | Away Win = 3.17💵

Real Betis come into this clash full of confidence, unbeaten in 14 of their last 15 matches across all competitions. Goals from Abde Ezzalzouli and Antony handed them the edge in the first leg, and another late winner followed in their 2-1 La Liga victory over Espanyol.

Sitting sixth in La Liga, just one point off the top five, Manuel Pellegrini’s side are in red-hot form and eager to finally make their mark in Europe after watching rivals Sevilla lift trophy after trophy.

🗝️Key Players & Team News📰:

Fiorentina will welcome back suspended captain Luca Ranieri to the backline, with Pablo Mari unavailable in Europe. Moise Kean is expected to lead the line again, possibly alongside Albert Gudmundsson or Lucas Beltran.

Danilo Cataldi is a doubt due to a thigh issue, but right-winger Dodo has recovered from surgery and could start. Palladino will likely revert to a full-strength XI after weekend squad rotation.

Real Betis, meanwhile, are still without key trio Chimy Avila, Marc Roca, and Diego Llorente due to injury. Antony is a sure starter after goals in both the first leg and against Espanyol, while Isco, boasting 11 goals and eight assists, remains the team’s creative heartbeat.

Cedric Bakambu and Ezzalzouli are in line for attacking roles, with the Moroccan likely to get the nod again after impressing in the first leg.

🔢Match Stats & Betting Odds | Draw = 3.50💵

⚽ Fiorentina are unbeaten in five of their last six Conference League home matches. | Main Market: Early Payout (Home) = 2.29

⚽ Real Betis have scored at least two goals in five of their last six away games across all competitions. | Main Market: Goals (Away Over 1.5) = 2.60

⚽ There have been at least 2.5 goals in the last 4 games of Fiorentina and Real Betis, including their 1st leg encounter last week. | Main Market: Over 2.5 Goals = 1.92

Thursday’s clash in Florence promises drama, with Fiorentina desperate to break their Spanish jinx and Betis determined to end their wait for European silverware. Expect intensity, quality, and possibly extra time.
