Bologna-Milan match could be moved to a neutral venue

Serie A clash in jeopardy due to safety concerns

Authorities considering moving match away from Bologna's Dall'Ara stadium

The Serie A match between Bologna and AC Milan, scheduled for Sunday, May 28, could be moved to a neutral venue due to safety concerns.

The decision is expected to be made by the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) in the coming days, following a meeting with representatives from both clubs and the local authorities.

The Dall'Ara stadium, Bologna's home ground, has been the scene of several incidents of crowd trouble in recent years, including a pitch invasion by fans during a match against Inter Milan in 2019.

The FIGC is concerned that the match between Bologna and Milan, which is a high-profile fixture, could attract a large number of fans and potentially lead to further trouble.

The FIGC is also considering the possibility of playing the match behind closed doors, without any fans in attendance.

The decision on whether to move or cancel the match will be made after the FIGC has assessed the security risks and consulted with the local authorities.

If the match is moved, it is likely to be played at a neutral venue in a different city.

The FIGC is expected to make a decision on the match by the end of the week.
