Football Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips
-------------------------------
Bologna will host Fiorentina in the Derby dell'Apennino after ending their recent winless streak. The Rossoblu have shown some inconsistency, but Fiorentina are also improving following a poor start to the season. Both sides aim to build momentum in this crucial mid-table clash.
Team Analysis:
Bologna ended a seven-game winless streak with a hard-fought victory over Hellas Verona, moving to eighth in Serie A but still chasing European spots. Fiorentina have shown signs of revival, picking up eight points from their last five matches, though defensive lapses continue to cost them. Both sides will look to build momentum in the Derby dell'Appennino, with Bologna aiming for a third consecutive home win over their Tuscan rivals.
Player Situation:
Bologna will rotate their squad ahead of next week’s Europa League clash, recalling players like Jonathan Rowe and Nadir Zortea, while still missing key names through injury and suspension. Riccardo Orsolini is expected to lead the attack alongside Castro or Thijs Dallinga. Fiorentina, despite reinforcements like Manor Solomon and Marco Brescianini, continue to struggle for goals, with Kean or Roberto Piccoli likely to spearhead their frontline.
Result Prediction:
Bologna and Fiorentina, known for high-scoring clashes, are set for another entertaining encounter. Fiorentina’s defense remains fragile despite recent improvements. Bologna, on the other hand, enter in confident form after an emphatic attacking display against Hellas Verona.
Predicted Result: Bologna 2-1 Fiorentina.
