Bologna will be looking to improve their recent record in Serie A on Sunday, as they chase a second win in three matches. They will be the clear favourites to land victory this weekend, as they come up against a Salernitana side that sits bottom of the standings.
Serie A Preview
It has been an encouraging first half to the Serie A season for Bologna, as they comfortably sit in the top half of the standings after 14 rounds of matches. In fact, they could yet emerge as one of the shock contenders for a European place in the Italian competition this term, as they sit just two points off the top four spots in the standings.
Their chances of achieving that unlikely feat this term have certainly been aided by how challenging they have been to beat. That is evident from the fact that Bologna have suffered two defeats in the league this term. However, their recent form has been impacted by draws, as they picked up a seventh tie in the league last weekend against Lecce.
All the pressure is likely to be on the home side this weekend, as Salernitana are yet to show why they have the quality to escape the drop. At present, they sit bottom of the league standings after winning just once across their opening 14 matches. They are the second-lowest scorers in Serie A, and boast the worst defensive record.
Salernitana come into this weekend after suffering a third loss in their previous five matches in their previous match. But, they will likely take a small amount of confidence from the fact that they went two without a loss before that defeat. Home advantage could be a key factor for them this weekend against Bologna.
Salernitana vs Bologna Head to Head
Draws are an incredibly common outcome when these sides meet. That is highlighted by the fact that each of the previous three have ended level, which includes a 2-2 tie in this exact fixture last term. Bologna has won once in the last four, with that 3-2 success coming at home in August 2021.
Salernitana vs Bologna Prediction
Bologna’s progression has been halted by draws in recent weeks, and that could be a recurring issue this weekend. We will be taking a chance on the points being shared in this Serie A fixture on Sunday.
