Bologna vs Genoa Preview and Team News

Bologna Team News

After redeeming a long-awaited Coppa Italia title, Bologna suffered a defeat at the hands of Fiorentina in the penultimate round (3-2). In a five-goal thriller, the visitors could have gone for a draw, but the late goal from Moise Kean ensured a win for La Viola.

Bologna have almost no motivation left for the final round and are currently placed eighth with 62 points. They reached their maximum and can wait for the next campaign.

Juan Miranda was sent off and won’t feature against Genoa. Also, Martin Erlic, Jens Odgaard and Estanis Pedrola will sit out due to various injuries. 

Bologna predicted lineup vs Genoa

Bologna predicted lineup vs Genoa: (4-2-3-1): Skorupski; Lykogiannis, Lucumi, Beukema, Calabria; Freuler, Freguson; Orsolini, Fabbian, Ndoye; Dallinga.

Genoa Team News

Genoa’s winless run continued to six matches, as Patrick Vieira’s side lost against Atalanta in a five-goal drama (2-3). The hosts had a lead in the first half, and VAR disallowed Mattia Bani’s goal for a handball. Nevertheless, Gian Piero Gasperini’s men bounced back, and it was Mateo Retegui who shattered the hopes for the squad.

Similar to Bologna, the guests have no ambitions left this season. They are guaranteed a spot in the Italian top tier and will finish in 13th place. 

Genoa have several injury concerns ahead of Sunday. Ruslan Malinovsky, Alan Matturro, Fabio Miretti, Maxwel Cornet and Mario Balotelli will not participate in the match.

Bologna vs Genoa Prediction 

• Pick: Bologna to Win
• Odds: 1.51 (22Bet)
• Score prediction: Bologna 3-1 Genoa

After suffering a defeat against Fiorentina, Bologna will aim to finish the season with a victory. If we take a look at home match stats, they are the sixth-best team, and Vincenzo Italiano will certainly motivate his players to go for the triumph.

Genoa are a tough side to compete against, but are on a poor run. The last time they won in an away game was against Empoli in December 2024.

The hosts will surely take advantage of the home field, and we expect them to complete their trip in style. Our first pick here would be Bologna to win. 

Bologna vs Genoa Prediction, Betting Tip

• Pick: Over 2.5 Goals
• Odds: 1.71 (22Bet)

Typically, in the last round of Serie A, clubs are free from pressure, and we’re lucky to witness attacking football. Even Genoa, who had problems in the offence, have produced three consecutive meetings with at least three goals.

Bologna are not a stranger to dominant display either, and their talisman, Riccardo Orsolini, will want his 15th goal in the campaign. On the other end, Andrea Pinamonti stands out. The Italian credited a brace to his account.

We anticipate an entertaining match and a high-scoring battle. Hence, our second prediction for this game would be over 2.5 goals.
