Bologna - Cagliari predictions

We don’t expect Bologna to have any issues beating Cagliari. The hosts are largely favoured by all the top bookmakers online and 1.62 might actually be a good-value bet to consider. The visitors are not to be underestimated but on this particular instance the home side are seen as clear winners.

With a matchup like this, it seems like we already know the outcome. Cagliari stand little chance of achieving anything except an appearance. Most bookies price an away win for this match at 6.16, marking an insurmountable difference.

Bologna are feeling fairly confident based on their latest Serie A performance. Most experts favoured their opponents, Milan , despite the fact Bologna played as hosts. However, after a rocky first half, they managed to turn a first-half deficit into an exciting 2:1 victory.

Cagliari quickly fell behind in their previous Serie A outing and ended up losing the match 0:1. A victory on their end would have been highly surprising considering the 1.96 betting odds with top online bookmakers, though, so the one-goal difference at the end was not as bad as it might seem.

The home-pitch advantage appears to be quite important for Bologna. Their last 3 fixtures at home were crowned by more than 5 goals in total.

Win or lose, the away team seems to often participate in rather uneventful matches. For instance, the previous two featured fewer than 2 goals each, which may be the start of a trend.

While there is reason to be pleased with the number 6th position in the standings, Bologna likely have plans to move up. They’ll want to secure a Europa League qualification while they still have opportunities to do so.

Cagliari have just 4 points between them and the relegation zone. The season’s end is in sight, but there’s plenty of time left for changes in the standings. A win at Bologna would go a long way in helping them stay in the Serie A, difficult as it is.

Bologna already have a victory over Cagliari on their record. It happened earlier in this running season of the Serie A, marking them as the clear favourites for the upcoming showdown.

Fortunately, both teams will have a complete lineup this Sunday, with no players out due to injury or suspension.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 2.05, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
