ROME- AC Milan continued their fearsome form as they enjoyed a comfortable 5-1 home victory over Bologna on Saturday while Atalanta were held by Hellas Verona to a 1-1 draw.

Milan are on an unbeaten run after the resumption of the Serie A, and fresh from a 3-1 midweek victory over Parma.

The home side went 2-0 up after 24 minutes with Alexis Saelemaekers' opener and Hakan Calhanoglu's volley from point-blank range.

Bologna pulled one goal back before the break as Takehiro Tomiyasu cut inside from the right and unleashed a curler that flew into the net with both power and precision.

The Rossoneri restored the two-goal margin just four minutes into the second half as Ismael Bennacer burst into the box and placed a low-strike into the corner.

Milan quickly rode the momentum in the 56th minute when Ante Rebic turned in the box, and sent the ball into the far corner.

Davide Calabria sealed the match in stoppage time as the right-back finished with a daisy-cutter on Rafael Leao's assist.

Milan temporarily leaped over Napoli into sixth place with 56 points.

Atalanta, who have scored the most goals in the current Serie A season, surprisingly played out a 1-1 draw at Verona.

The Dea broke the deadlock in the 50 minute when Verona defender Koray Gunter's howler allowed Duvan Zapata to intercept the ball, the Colombian surged into the box and won the one-on-one against goalkeeper Marco Silvestri.
