The Emilia-Romagna derby is upon us this weekend as Sassuolo welcomes Bologna in the 29th round of the Italian Serie A. There’s one point standing between the two sides, with Sassuolo being ninth on 38 and Bologna placed eighth. Read on to find our prediction for the match.
In the last five league matches, these two sides have had identical records. Hosts Sassuolo are coming off a 2-1 defeat against Lazio. A stoppage-time concession saw their three-game winning run come to an end.
However, with five wins in their last seven matches, Neroverdi remain one of the most in-form sides in Serie A.
Bologna dropped points from a winning position as they fell 2-1 to relegation-threatened Verona. It was one of the shocking outcomes in recent Serie A matches, ending Bologna’s run of three straight wins.
The Rossoblu could not fully recover as they drew 1-1 with AS Roma in their latest outing, a Europa League all-Italian affair.
Now winless in two matches and with fears of fatigue from the grueling midweek battle, Bologna have to find a way against a well-rested host.
They are 11 points adrift of the top six. Their charge for a return to winning ways is boosted by a run of four straight wins away from home.
