Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Bologna will look to bounce back from a 3-0 loss to Udinese when they take on Genoa in the Serie A round 19. Thiago Motta is likely to make changes to the team that suffered the loss to the Zebrette, with all Aebischer, Lucumi, and Orsolini pushing for a start. Both Dan Ndoye and Adama Soumaoro are sidelined with injuries, while Lewis Ferguson misses out through suspension.
The Rossoblu, on the other hand, continue with their old habit of producing fine displays at home, while struggling on the travels and given Bologna’s fine home record, we are tempted to put our money on Thiago Motta’s troops. You should bear in mind, though, that the former Inter midfielder will be watching the game from the stands following his sending-off in the last league fixture. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
