The final game to kick off on Saturday evening in Serie A is a really intriguing clash, with Bologna the home side and their visitors are Sassuolo, a team struggling near the bottom. But the fact that Bologna haven't won for a few games now, makes this a far more interesting tie than it would have been a few weeks ago.
Bologna Form GuideGo back a few weeks and Bologna were in really good form, pushing hard in the Serie A standings but recently, it hasn't been the same, they're lacking a spark right now. They come here on the back of four league games without a win and they lost in the cup during that period, taking the run to five in all competitions.
They drew last weekend, holding AC Milan to a draw away from home, that game ended 2-2. Before that though, they suffered a defeat against struggling Cagliari, and they've also lost to Udinese in this bumpy period, so teams near the bottom have been beating them.
Sassuolo Form GuideDown in 15th positiion right now, Sassuolo may be a few places above the relegation zone right now, but in terms of points, it's much tighter. They have 19 points, Cagliari who are in the relegation zone have 18, showing just how tight it is down there, and Sassuolo are not playing great right now, so the pressure is firmly on.
They've won one and lost four of their last five games, and come here on the back of two defeats from their last two league games. They lost 1-0 away at Monza last weekend, before that, they lost 3-0 away at Juventus. They remain away from home here, and continue to struggle on their travels.
Match PredictionBologna are not at their best right now, but I think they make a change here, and get back to winning ways. Sassuolo are struggling, are bad away from home, and I'm taking Bologna to get all three points.
