Bologna vs Fiorentina Prediction: 15/12/2024

Bologna has been a surprise contender for European competition spots this season, currently sitting in 8th place in Serie A, just 5 points behind 6th, with a game in hand. After a slow start, the team has picked up momentum, securing 4 victories in their last 6 league matches, along with 1 draw and 1 loss. Their recent 2-2 draw against Juventus is a sign of their solid form as they continue to push for a top-six finish.

Fiorentina, on the other hand, has been exceeding expectations, holding 4th place in Serie A, just 3 points behind the league leaders, with a game in hand. The team has been in excellent form, winning their last 8 league matches. Their recent wins against Como (2-0) and Cagliari (1-0) have further boosted their confidence. While their eyes are set on qualifying for the Champions League, the dream of competing for the Scudetto is also within reach.

 

Bologna will be missing several key players, including Aebischer, Orsolini (6 goals in Serie A), full-backs Lykogiannis and Miranda, winger Cambiaghi, and substitute El Azzouzi. However, Swiss international Ndoye, who has been in great form with 3 goals and 2 assists in Serie A, is expected to play a crucial role. Argentine forward Castro (4 goals and 3 assists) is likely to lead the attack, potentially over summer signing Dallinga, who is yet to score.

Fiorentina, meanwhile, will be without midfielder Edoardo Bove, who fell ill during the match against Inter, and backup defender Pongracic. Striker Kean (9 goals) is expected to start, and Icelandic international Gudmundsson, who recently returned from injury, will add depth to the squad. Fiorentina’s strong defense, the best in Serie A, continues to be a solid foundation for their impressive performances.

Prediction

Bologna 1-2 Fiorentina. Both teams have shown attacking potential, and given their recent high-scoring games, this match is expected to feature multiple goals.
