Betting on Bologna
Against all odds, Bologna is making a strong case for itself to qualify for Europe next season, and playing at home this weekend could be another crucial step for the team.
Under Thiago Motta’s leadership, Bologna has been one of the surprises of the second half of the Serie A season, recording only two losses in its last 12 matchdays, including seven victories during that span.
The team’s impressive performance has positioned it in eighth place in the standings with 43 points, just five points behind Atalanta, who currently hold the spot for the Conference League.
One of the keys to Bologna’s success has been its improved defense. In three of its last four matches, its opponents have failed to score a goal against it.
As a home team, Bologna has also been very effective. The team has only lost three times at home this season and has shown its solid defense by allowing only 10 goals in 15 matches played, making it the third team with the fewest goals conceded at home.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Lukasz Skorupski; Stefan Posch, Adama Soumaoro, Jhon Lucumí, Georgios Kyriakopoulos; Jerdy Schouten, Nikola Moro; Michel Aebischer, Lewis Ferguson, Musa Barrow; Nicola Sansone.
Betting on AC Milan
In the midst of a rather irregular season, Milan will have a difficult decision to make this weekend when it faces a rather complicated rival.
For now, the Rossoneri have a spot reserved for next year’s Champions League, as they sit fourth with 52 points. However, they are only one point ahead of Inter in fifth place, and next week they must visit Napoli for the second leg of the quarterfinals of the Champions League.
Although Milan won 1-0 in the first leg, Stefano Pioli will have to decide whether to rest some of his key players for the match at the Diego Maradona stadium, or instead, go all out to maintain that fourth position in the standings and then see with who he can rely on for the second leg.
AC Milan is in a tough spot with only one win in its last five Serie A matches. The team find itself amidst chaos, as there is only a seven-point difference between the teams in second and fifth place in the standings.
To make matters worse, Pioli’s men have not been performing well on the road either. While they managed to secure a 4-0 victory against Napoli in their last away game, they have only won two of their last seven matches on the road, conceding 12 goals and scoring only nine.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Mike Maignan; Pierre Kalulu, Simon Kjær, Fikayo Tomori, Theo Hernandez; Sandro Tonali, Ismael Bennacer; Rade Krunic, Brahim Diaz, Rafael Leao; Olivier Giroud.
JefeBet Prediction
The Milan victory over Napoli can be seen in two ways for this upcoming match. While the Rossoneri may try to hold back for the second leg, it could also be the motivational push they needed to solidify their position in the top four of the standings.
The problem is that the team has to travel to face Bologna, one of the hottest teams in Serie A since January and which is close to returning to Europe for the first time since the 1999-00 season.
The red and blues have not lost in their stadium for three matches, but they face the historical weight of not having defeated Milan in the last 14 encounters, during which they have recorded two draws and 12 losses.
Prediction: Under (BOL 1 – MIL 1).
