Serie A promises a fiery Easter Sunday, with two massive matches poised to impact both the title race and European qualification. At the Stadio Dall’Ara, Simone Inzaghi’s Inter - fresh off a Champions League semifinal qualification after overcoming Bayern Munich - visit Bologna in a crucial Scudetto clash. Just three days before the Coppa Italia derby, the Nerazzurri take on one of the league’s most in-form sides, despite Bologna’s recent stumble against Atalanta. Inter currently hold a three-point lead over Napoli, while Vincenzo Italiano’s Bologna sit just two points behind Juventus in the fight for a Champions League berth.
The standings behind leaders Inter and Napoli show how tight the race is: Atalanta (61), Juventus (59), Bologna (57), and Lazio (56) are all within five points, battling for just two available Champions League spots.
Later in the evening, Gasperini’s Atalanta will travel to San Siro to face Milan. Conceicao’s Rossoneri, out of the Champions League race, are now fighting to secure a spot in either the Europa League or Conference League. With just 51 points, Milan trail Fiorentina and Roma in the race for ninth place and need nothing less than a win against the Bergamaschi.

Easter Sunday will kick off with a dramatic relegation battle between Empoli and Venezia. The two sides are level on 24 points, sitting 18th and 19th respectively, and trail safety by just two points. It’s a head-to-head that could define the entire season for both clubs.
