Bologna - Como predictions

The online bookies marked Bologna as the favourites, which makes a lot of sense. Still, we wouldn’t put Como winning beyond them – not to mention that draws are a strong possibility in relatively balanced games.

The visitors would need to pull off quite a stunt in order to come out victorious. They are severely outmatched in this outing – the 4.43 away win odds alone should speak volumes.

Previously in the Serie A, Bologna faced off against Empoli in a relatively favourable away game. However, the two teams proved to be evenly matched, with neither side breaking the stalemate for the duration of the bout.

Como are here on the back of a narrow 1:2 home loss against Atalanta. The matchup was very difficult for Como, however, so it’s hard to judge their current form based on that performance – though they did end the first half with a lead.

With a defensive record like the one Bologna boasts, their fans may have a reason to worry. They conceded more than 5 goals in their previous 3 home games alone – the advantage of playing at Stadio Renato Dall'Ara seems lost on them.

With 6 goals in their previous 3 Serie A matches, Como boast some of the most prolific strikers of the league. Top online bookies are predicting another action-packed game.

Bologna will have to make use of this opportunity if they want to climb the table up from their current spot at number 8th. There is still time left, but the clock is already ticking.

The away team will find it difficult to secure any points here, but they would be a great way to climb up from their current table position, which is at 13th. The season is close to its midpoint, and putting some more distance between them and the relegation zone would be more than welcome.

These two teams already clashed multiple times this season, and neither managed to come out on top in any of those games. Most bookmakers see Bologna as the favourites, though, so they’ll want to use the extra drive of being the hosts to finally earn a conclusive result.

The visitors’ status as underdogs is further made worse by the exceptionally high number of injuries going into this match. Daniele Baselli, Marco Sala, Alberto Moreno, Ignace Brempt, Dele Alli will all be unable to play at Stadio Renato Dall'Ara, so think twice before putting down any bets.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 2.04, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
