An intriguing contest awaits us on Monday evening when two sides Roma and Bologna, who are separated by just four points in Serie A go head to head.
Roma have had plenty to celebrate in recent weeks. Indeed, Daniele De Rossi’s side enter Monday’s game with just one defeat from their last thirteen games across all competitions. Their most recent outing was against Milan in the Europa League, where they registered a 2-1 win despite going a man down with just over 30 minutes on the clock.
Bologna meanwhile are another Italian top flight side that has equally been in very good form of late. The visitors have lost just one of their last twelve games, winning eight and drawing three. The only defeat in that spell came against Inter and Thiago Motta’s side registered wins against the likes of Atalanta, Fiorentina ad Lazio, while drawing with Milan.
Betting Tips Roma vs Bologna: Draw & Under 2.5 goals
Roma sit in fifth, but only the likes of Inter and AC Milan have a better record on home soil that the Yellow and Reds. Daniele De Rossi’s side are unbeaten in their last six games at Stadio Olimpico and I don’t think that run will end on Monday.
Bologna have built that recent success on a solid defensive foundation. I Rossoblù finished each of their last four league games without conceding and also boast a good record defensively against Roma. The away side finished four of their last five meetings with Roma without conceding and all five encounters ended with two goals or fewer.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals
- Roma vs Bologna prediction: 0-0

Roma team news
Mehmet Zeki Çelik received a straight red card in the win over Milan last time out, but that won’t result in a suspension in the league.
The Turkish professional is expected to start on the right side of the defence with Leonardo Spinazzola on the right, while Chris Smalling and Gianluca Mancini will form the centre back pairing.
Evan Ndicka and Romelu Lukaku are doubts for Monday’s game due to chest and muscle injuries respectively.

Bologna team news
Lewis Ferguson will once again be unavailable to Bologna head coach Thiago Motta due to a cruciate ligament injury and Adama Soumaoro is also injured.
Dan Ndoye, Sam Beukema, Riccardo Calafiori and Victor Kristiansen are just one yellow card away from serving a one match ban, but the visitors didn’t pick up any fresh injuries in the draw with Monza last weekend.
