Bologna vs Fiorentina Prediction & Betting Tips (18 January)

Now considered among the serious contenders for Europe, Bologna is behind on its progress this season. The Rossoblu are currently 8th in Serie A and concede 4 units of spending on 6th place. In tough times for several weeks, they have gone seven games without a win in the league, 3 draws and 4 defeats. After losing to Inter 3-1 and Atalanta 0-2, Bologna took a good point at Como last weekend 1-1. This week, Vincenzo Italiano's gang put an end to their poor momentum by winning on the pitch of Hellas Verona 2-3.

In great difficulty this season, Fiorentina now occupies 18th place in Serie A with 3 points behind the first non-relegation team. Unable to win during the first fifteen days, the Tuscans have shown a real return to form for some time. Thus, they have only lost one of their last 5 league matches, for 2 wins and 2 draws. After beating Cremonese at home 1-0, Fiorentina shared the points with Lazio 2-2 and AC Milan last weekend 1-1. 

Bologna must still do without defense captain Lucumi and experienced winger Bernardeschi, who have not sufficiently recovered from their physical problems. In addition, the important winger Cambiaghi has not finished serving his suspension. In the offensive sector, we could find the Italian international Orsolini (7 goals in SA) and the Argentine striker Castro (6 goals and 2 assists in SA), who scored against Hellas Verona.

The latter is still in competition with Dallinga (1 goal and 2 assists in SA) and Immobile.
