Bologna vs Sassuolo Prediction 03.02.2024

• Competition: Serie A
• Date: 03.02.2024
• Kickoff: 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET
• Venue: Stadio Renato Dall’Ara (Bologna)

Bologna’s form has noticeably dropped, evidenced by their elimination from the Italian Cup and failure to secure a win in their last four Serie A games. This decline resulted in a mere two points from these matches, causing a significant drop in their league position &— from a Europa League qualifying spot to 8th place. However, with several rounds still to go, there is ample opportunity for Bologna to stage a comeback. Their best chance lies in the advantage of their impressive home field, the Renato Dall’Ara stadium.

Sassuolo’s form has further deteriorated. The Italian club, which has enjoyed considerable success in recent years, has managed only one victory in the past decade and their poor run continued in Monza last round, suffering a 1-0 defeat. Now, they are merely one point away from the danger zone and Cagliari, who currently holds 18 points. Given the circumstances, this could potentially escalate into a genuine fight for survival &— a situation the club had not anticipated at the start of the season when their ambitions were significantly higher.

Bologna vs Sassuolo pick: BOLOGNA TO WIN

Although Bologna hasn’t had any recent victories in Serie A, they’ve exhibited strong performance in various away games, such as their 2-2 draw against Milan. In their latest Serie A home game, they secured a 1-1 draw against Genoa. Prior to that, Bologna enjoyed an impressive winning streak of seven consecutive matches at their home stadium. Known for their solid performance on home ground, they even beat Sassuolo 3-0 last season. In this season’s first match in Sassuolo, they ended with a 1-1 draw. Given the performance of the visiting team and their mere 8 points from 11 away games this season, it’s anticipated that Bologna will be victorious. The odds are certainly in their favor.
