Empoli vs Bologna Prediction & Betting Tips - Serie A
by Kennedy Kechula in Serie A Predictions
For the second time in six matches, Bologna will be on the road, when they face Empoli in Serie A. Placed seventh, Rossoblu are looking to break into European places while Azzurri Empolesi arrive for this game in 15th place. Let’s look at the prediction for this match.
Empoli sit just a point above the relegation zone. They will come into this game seeking stability after Inter Milan handed them their ninth league loss of the season.
That 3-1 defeat marked the third time in five matches that Empoli conceded three goals. A 1-1 draw with Venezia is the only time they avoided defeat.
Bologna have recovered from their shock defeat to Verona at the end of 2024. That being their only loss in the last 11 matches, the visitors will be confident of a win here.
They are on a four-match unbeaten run, and won the last two. Right ahead of this match, Bologna staged an impressive comeback at home to shock Borussia Dortmund 2-1.
While it marked a fifth straight game scoring at least twice, Bologna haven't managed a clean sheet in the five games. Three times in that period, they conceded two or more goals.
Away from home, they have two clean sheets, but also conceded two or more three times in five matches.

Our Empoli vs Bologna Prediction
Bologna are unbeaten in the last four matches and posted back-to-back wins in the latest two. While they have one win in four away matches, the teams they faced in that run are very strong outfits. They should bag three points here, taking on a team on three straight home defeats.
The hosts have suffered five defeats in the last six matches. For the two sides, defence is not the strongest point but they’ve rarely failed to score. Our prediction for Empoli v Bologna is for Bologna to win the match and both teams to score.
Prediction :
Bologna to win the match and both teams to score
