Jose Mourinho is taking no chances at the Stadio Dall'Ara and has fielded a full-strength Inter side against Bologna.
The tactician had warned he would not risk distraction ahead of the Champions League showdown with Manchester United.
He is pulling no punches and has not rested any of his top stars for this afternoon's Serie A game, which kicks off at 15.00 UK time.
Adriano and Zlatan Ibrahimovic start upfront in a 4-4-2 system, although Sulley Ali Muntari is given the slightly more advanced midfield role instead of Dejan Stankovic.
Bologna are obviously fielding their first choice XI and tall centre-back Miguel Angelo Britos has the task of marking Ibrahimovic.
Check back for half-time and full reports along with extensive post-match comments.
Bologna: 1 Antonioli; 21 Zenoni, 18 Moras, 6 Britos, 23 Lanna; 7 Valiani, 26 Mudingayi, 8 Mingazzini, 5 Volpi, 10 Bombardini; 9 Di Vaio.
Bologna bench: 15 Colombo, 84 Balleri, 19 Terzi, 25 Mutarelli, 4 Amoroso, 20 Adailton, 41 Marazzina.
Inter: 12 Julio Cesar; 13 Maicon, 2 Cordoba, 25 Samuel, 39 Santon; 4 Zanetti, 19 Cambiasso, 6 Maxwell; 20 Muntari; 8 Ibrahimovic, 10 Adriano.
Inter bench: 1 Toldo, 24 Rivas, 7 Figo, 14 Vieira, 5 Stankovic, 45 Balotelli, 9 Cruz.
