Right after ending their winless streak, Bologna goes straight into another tricky encounter in Serie A, at home to Fiorentina. The season hasn’t shaped out well for Fiorentina, who sit 18th before this round, while Bologna are eighth. Read on to find our prediction of this match.
Bologna came from behind to stun Verona 3-2 on the road in their last match. That was their first win in eight matches across all competitions. After sinking one relegation-threatened side, they are targeting a similar treatment on another.
Four defeats in their last eight matches reveal their shaky side, though. At home in the last four league matches, they are winless, losing twice.
While Fiorentina will look at Bologna’s woes in recent weeks and feel this is a winnable game, head-to-head history doesn’t favor them. In their away matches against Bologna, Fiorentina suffered defeat, and in the latest two, they failed to score.
Despite looking second best in this matchup, Fiorentina have registered their most improvement domestically in the past few weeks. Last time out they conceded very late in a 1-1 draw with AC Milan.
That was their third unbeaten outing, all in Serie A. Their two wins so far in the league came inside the last five outings.

Our Bologna vs Fiorentina Prediction
Across these two sides’ last six meetings when hosted at Bologna, only two returned clean sheets. Fiorentina have in particular been poor defensively on their travels in this fixture. Three times in their last five clashes away to Bologna, they conceded two or more goals.
Bologna themselves haven't been at their best defensively; in the last 10 matches, they failed to keep a clean sheet. The goals market, therefore, looks appealing for this encounter. Our prediction for Bologna v Fiorentina is BTTS.
