MILAN (AP) — A cup specialist will take on a serial runner-up when AC Milan plays Bologna in the Italian Cup final on Wednesday.

And both teams will be looking to get their hands on the trophy for the first time in decades.

Bologna hasn’t won the Italian Cup since 1974, which was its last major trophy.

Milan has won plenty of trophies since then, but last lifted the Italian Cup 22 years ago — losing two finals in the intervening years.

This time, however, the Rossoneri are led by a cup specialist in coach Sérgio Conceição.
