After being eliminated from the Europa League, Bologna will try to find some joy in the closing Serie A season by defeating Napoli at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona. However, it seems unlikely, as the Rossoblù have failed to score in any of their last four matches.

Napoli are mathematically out of contention with Inter for the Scudetto in this Serie A season, but Conte's men, all things considered, have had a solid year. They now only need to defend their second-place position in the league and are keen to extend their home form, having won 20 of their 28 league matches there and drawn 7.

The last time Napoli played at home, they thrashed Cremonese 4-0 in a rout that included goals from McTominay, De Bruyne, and Alisson Santos. The match ended 2-0 when Napoli last faced Bologna. That game was played in Riyadh for the Italian Super Cup final.

Our Napoli vs Bologna Prediction

Betting sites have Napoli as favorites at 1.56. Therefore, the best value bet might be on a low-scoring match, especially after Napoli and Bologna both drew 0-0 in Matchday 35.

It's worth noting that a quick glance shows Napoli has failed to win the following match after a draw in the four previous encounters. Other data suggests there will be fewer than 2.5 goals. In Bologna's last ten matches, only three have seen both teams score.

Our prediction for Napoli vs Bologna is: Under 2.5 goals.
