Match Prediction
Bologna vs Pisa Match Forecast
Bologna’s Offensive Struggles
Even at home, Vincenzo Italiano’s charges have rarely delighted their fans with a high number of goals lately. In their last six home matches, Bologna scored only one goal in five instances and, in particular, failed to score more than once against Como and Genoa during this period. At the same time, the club conceded a maximum of one goal in 8 of their last 9 home league games.
Pisa’s Defensive Strength
Pisa, although not yet shining with results, is a newcomer showing a decent defensive performance. In their five matches played this season, the team only allowed their opponent to score more than once in an away game against Napoli, who are the reigning Italian champions. On the other hand, the club has been weak in attack – Pisa has only three goals in five matches this season.
Final Verdict
I don’t expect a high-scoring game from these opponents, and my prediction is: “Total Under 2.5 goals.”
