Bologna entered this clash with the confidence of the more stable team, and the reasons are clear from their last direct encounter about a month ago, when they won as guests with a score of 1:3. They begin the defense of the Coppa Italia as the current holders of the trophy, and although their long unbeaten streak ended with a home loss to Cremonese, their overall performance remains confident. At home, Bologna appear even more compact and hardly allow any breaches, which sets the tone for expectations for the match.
Problems in attack for ParmaParma arrive with wavering form as an away team, having only one victory in their six visits and a total of three goals scored this season as guests. They failed to score in four of these six away matches, which clearly highlights their difficulties in the final third. At the same time, the hosts have three clean sheets in their last five matches and another four in the last six at home, which only emphasizes the contrast between the two teams.
Prediction: Bologna to win to nilThe combination of Bologna's strong defense at home and Parma's difficulties in attack directs my attention towards a home victory without conceding a goal. The last match between the two teams supports this direction, and their solid defensive statistics make it an even more natural choice.
