Bologna and Genoa meet on Saturday in a 2025-26 Serie A campaign matchday four, which may not be a goal classic. This match at Renato Dall’Ara between the 13th-placed Rossoblu (three points) and the 15th-placed Grifone (two points) comes with our prediction of under 1.5 goals.
The hosts (W1, L2) are three points behind the top six teams, while the visitors (D2, L1) are one of the six sides yet to win a match in this league campaign.
Bologna lost 1-0 away at AC Milan last weekend to continue their tryst with similar scores. All three of their league matches this season saw a 1-0 score (W1, L2), although two of those came in defeats.
With only four shots on target, it’s evident that the home side is struggling for impact. That said, a 1-0 win over Como at this venue on matchday two suggests they can be a tricky side.
Genoa held Como to a 1-1 away draw in their last match, extending their search for a win. They drew two of their three league games this year, sandwiched by a 1-0 loss at Juventus.
The draw against Como made it three away league games without a defeat for Genoa (W1, D2). However, six defeats in ten league trips before that sequence indicate they need results to gain momentum.

Our Bologna vs Genoa Prediction
This is a match between two misfiring units, as Bologna and Genoa have scored only one goal each in their three respective league games. They have managed to keep things tight at the back this season, though, conceding only two goals each. The dull nature of their games suggests the forward lines of both teams are likely to struggle to get going. Even the shots on target from the two teams have been below par.
Action could be limited and goals could be scarce, which is why our Bologna vs Genoa prediction is under 1.5.
