One of the matches of the 22nd round of the Italian Serie A will take place on Saturday at the Carlo Castellani Stadium, where Empoli will host Bologna. I suggest a bet on the goals in this match with a good odds value.

Match preview

Roberto D'Aversa's side continued their unimpressive run in the league, losing 1-3 to Inter away. This defeat extended Empoli's winless streak to six matches (1 draw and 5 losses). Additionally, it was the third time in this stretch that the team conceded three goals in a match.

Empoli continues to lose ground in the standings and has dropped to 15th place with 20 points. It's important to note that Empoli has earned only seven points in home matches this season, ahead of only Monza (6). The team has failed to win 9 of their last 10 home matches in Serie A (4 draws and 5 losses).

On the other hand, Bologna secured a solid 3-1 victory over Monza in the last round, marking their first win in the last four Serie A matches (2 draws, 1 loss). This win was also Bologna's third of the season, scoring three goals in one match.

Thanks to this result, Bologna has accumulated 33 points and climbed to 7th place in the standings, trailing Fiorentina only on goal difference. It’s worth noting that Bologna has not lost in 8 of their last 9 away matches in Serie A, with 4 wins and 4 draws. Midweek, Bologna also won at home against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League (2-1).

Probable lineups

  • Empoli: Davis Vasquez – Mattia De Sciglio, Mattia Viti, Ardian Ismajli – Liberato Cacace, Emmanuel Gyasi, Alberto Grassi, Youssef Maleh, Giuseppe Pezzella – Jacopo Fazzini, Lorenzo Colombo
  • Bologna: Federico Ravaglia – Juan Miranda, Sam Beukema, John Lucumi, Stefan Posch – Remo Freuler, Lewis Ferguson – Benha Domingues, Jens Odgor, Riccardo Orsolini – Santiago Castro

Match facts and head-to-head

  • In the first round, the teams played a 1-1 draw.
  • Last season, Bologna won twice against Empoli.
  • The "Both teams to score" bet hit only in one of the last five encounters between the teams.

Prediction

Bookmakers give a slight advantage to Bologna in this match, with odds for an away win around 2.17. We believe Bologna could win, but due to fatigue after the midweek European match, betting on the outcome seems risky. Our bet is on "Over 2.0 goals" with odds of 1.71.
