Napoli vs Bologna prediction
The 36th matchday in the Italian Serie A would feature a live action between 2023 Champions, Napoli and a reborn Bologna team at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium. In recent weeks, Napoli have had a really rough patch form-wise and it has seen their hopes for European football next season get thinner. They were super close to bringing their winless run to an end during their trip to Udinese last Monday but Osimhen’s supposed winner was ruled offside, then Isaac’s Success’s 92nd-minute equalizer crushed the hearts of the partenopei. This result keeps them in 8th position in the standings with 5 points behind Lazio and a point above Fiorentina.
Bologna so far have really exceeded every limiting expectation regarding their performance in the highest level of football in Italy and for the first time in 61 years, they would be playing Champions League football again. They are properly grounded in the league table and they occupy the 4th spot with 64 points, 2 behind Juventus, 4 above Atalanta. They are slightly better than Napoli in terms of form with a breakdown of 4 draws and a win in their last 5 games.
One thing these two have in common is a winless run, Napoli’s last 2 games ended in a draw and the same was the case for Bologna. This shows a high level of defensive display at its core and the possibility of the same outcome in this fixture but we are not going for an outright draw here because Napoli have a huge chance of fighting back because of their discomfort in league’s standings. Hence, Our Napoli vs Bologna prediction is 1st Half Draw and we recommend the 1st Half Draw market.
