Bologna vs Salernitana Prediction: Will the Red and Blue pick up their first win of the season?

Bologna will face Salernitana in the Italian league. We have a few bets on this game at once. Check the teams’ conditions and expert betting tips. Several betting options are available!

The team has only one point after three rounds. Bologna started the season with an away game against Lazio and lost 1:2. Then, on home soil, the Red and Blue couldn't overcome Verona (1:1). Last Saturday, Bologna lost away to AC Milan (0:2). As usual in recent years, they have failed to the top sides without any alternative and regularly score against equally-ranked and inferior sides.

Davide Nicola's side has suffered one defeat in their opening three fixtures. In their first league game, Salernitana lost 0:1 at home to Roma. Then, the team successfully beat a tough Udinese side (0:0). In the previous matchday, the team thrashed Sampdoria on home soil. The leading scorers were Dia, Bonazzoli, Botheim, and ex-Krasnodar midfielder Vilhena. Salerno now has four points, an excellent start to the season for a side that struggled to keep their Serie A title last season.

Salernitana has conceded just 1 goal in three games, although their xG ratio is as high as 6.08. So, Bologna will undoubtedly be able to score in the upcoming match. But the Red and Blue have not been very successful defensively either - five conceded goals for a 6.01 xG. Although in the case of Bologna, it's worth noting the strength of their opponents - Lazio, Verona, and Milan. Sinisa Mihajlovic's team will probably concede too, but it is unlikely to concede more than 1 goal, and, having scored 1:2 goals themselves, they won't lose.
