The full picture

AC Milan head coach Ruben Amorim is focused on the upcoming match against Bologna, ahead of the derby against Inter. Amorim made three changes from the previous win against Udinese, resting players like Luka Modric and Christian Pulisic. The team has been performing well at home, winning all three fixtures. They aim to continue this form to jump back into the top four.

Amorim has high expectations from Cisse, who was given a start against Bologna. He expects Cisse to showcase his quality and talent, play in the half-spaces, and create chances while also being defensive-minded. Amorim's comments were made in a brief interview with DAZN before the game against Bologna.

Milan's performance at home has been nearly faultless, with their only blot being a loss in the Europa League against Benfica. They are looking to make it three consecutive wins in Serie A and are hopeful of maintaining their solid domestic form ahead of the derby against Inter.

How we label and update stories

Source context

AC Milan head coach Ruben Amorim has insisted he is focused only on Bologna despite the derby looming at the weekend. For Milan, this is an opportunity to jump back into the top four after Como and Roma’s comeback wins on Tuesday night, and to make it three wins on the spin in Serie A. They have been nearly faultless at home thus far, winning all three home fixtures versus Venezia, Lecce and Atalanta. The only blot on the record came in the Europa League against Benfica, the competition which also brought the only other loss in 2026-27 thus far on Thursday night in Bournemouth. So, the Rossoneri will hope to keep up their solid domestic form ahead of Saturday’s derby. Amorim chose to make three changes from the Udinese win, notably resting Luka Modric and Christian Pulisic.
