Inter Milan are targeting their first clean sheet since their win over Atalanta in this evening’s match against Bologna.

This is highlighted in today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews.

Inter Milan take on Bologna in Serie A this evening.

And the Nerazzurri will know full well that they are up against one of the most prolific attacks in Serie A.

This will not be an easy match in which to keep a clean sheet for Inter.

But that could also make it a perfect opportunity to make a real statement.

Inter Targeting First Clean Sheet Since Atalanta In Serie A Clash Vs Bologna

Inter Milan have played six matches since the return from the March international break. And they haven’t kept a clean sheet in a single one of them.

That is a worrying trend. Against Parma, Inter were punished for their defensive switch-offs.

The last time that Inter kept a clean sheet was just before the break.

The Nerazzurri travelled to Bergamo to face Atalanta. And they were certainly well aware that they were up against one of Serie A’s most formidable attacking sides then.

But Inter Milan not only kept Atalanta from scoring. They also largely restricted La Dea’s ability to create any decent chances.

There is a parallel to the match in Bologna this evening.

It will not be easy. But Inter will hope that they can put their defensive issues from recent weeks behind them.
