Bologna vs Napoli Prediction

Napoli somehow survived a late Sporting Braga scare on Wednesday night, picking up a slender 2-1 victory on Portuguese soil at the start of their UEFA Champions League campaign.

I Partinopei will also be looking to return to winning ways in the domestic league on Sunday afternoon when they visit Stadio Renato Dall’Ara for the Gameweek No 5 clash against Bologna.

After claiming two wins in the inaugural two Serie A affairs, the reigning champions dropped the ball in the following two outings, claiming just one point from the fixtures against Lazio (a 1-2 home loss) and Genoa (a 2-2 stalemate on the road).

The lack of defensive meticulousness is the obvious issue new manager Rudi Garcia has to address.

Luckily for the French manager, his team are now set to face the non-inspiring attacking unit of Bologna’s.

Bologna scored just three goals in four league affairs this term. They will go into this off the back of a goalless draw away at Verona.

On another note, I Rossoblu are unbeaten in three straight league outings, a run that includes a 1-1 stalemate to Juventus in Turin.

Latest Meetings

Napoli will come into this on the back of five victories and a draw in the previous six meetings with Bologna.

I Partinopei bagged two or more goals in each of the last five clashes against Bologna.

We’ve seen at least four goals in each of the previous two outings between these counterparts.

The Verdict

Napoli can ill afford another slip-up knowing Inter Milan are already five points adrift at the top of the league standings. The visitors possess enough quality to dispatch this Bologna team and we like the look of the 1.95 odds offered for I Partinopei to claim the spoils on Sunday.

If anyone is to make the difference in Napoli’s favor, it is Victor Osimhen who already has three goals to his name in this term of Serie A. You can back the Nigerian forward to score anytime at the 2.05 odds.
