Team News

Bologna
Empoli
  • Dan Ndoye has been ruled out for 3 weeks with an injury, while Juan Miranda will start at left back.
  • Alberto Grassi is back from suspension and ready to play.

Prediction

  • Bologna suffered a 3-0 defeat against Napoli on Sunday: perhaps the scoreline was harsh based on their defensive performance, but their attacking performance was quite bad and they struggled to create chances despite having a lot of possession.
  • On the other hand, Empoli pulled off a shocking 2-1 win in Rome as the Azzurri tore Roma's defence apart and created lots of chances, while also having a bit of luck on their side and avoiding a clear penalty in stoppage time.
  • Bologna will be eager to bounce back quickly at the Dall'Ara stadium, where they had the 2nd best home record in Serie A last season.
