Roma vs Bologna Prediction: Will the team be able to break the unpleasant streak at home against Bologna?

Roma hasn't won the national championship in three consecutive rounds. Will the team be able to break the unpleasant streak at home against Bologna?

Before the pause for the World Cup, the team had an unsuccessful streak. Roma lost in the derby to Lazio (0:1) and then played twice 1:1 against Sassuolo and Torino. In both encounters, the Romans took the lead but lost the advantage in the closing stages. As a result of this disappointing episode, Roma dropped out of the European Cup competition and currently occupies seventh place in the league standings. However, the team from the capital city is separated only by three points from the top 4.

The Red and Blue have changed their head coach in the course of the championship, and under the guidance of the new coach, who became Thiago Motta, they significantly improved. Thus, Bologna won four of their last five league matches and lost only to Inter. Thanks to such a good start, Bologna jumped up to 11th place in the standings, leaving them 12 points behind in the relegation zone.

Bologna has been one of the most average players in Italian soccer in recent years. And it is unlikely that under Thiago Motta, this picture will change. The Red and Blue consistently win points in games against teams of the same class but invariably lose points against the top sides. Roma is undoubtedly among the Serie A giants. Jose Mourinho's team failed to gain points in the last games before the pause and will surely use the chance to earn three points in a match with a convenient opponent.
