Bologna vs Torino prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2025-02-13 19:45.
[p]European hopefuls Bologna may have continued their unbeaten start to 2025 (W4, D5) but a goalless draw against bottom-half Lecce marked a setback in their top-six chase. Vincenzo Italiano’s men have a four-point deficit to his former side Fiorentina to make up and they’ll be confident of bridging that gap if they can continue a run of three successive clean sheets across all competitions (W2, D1).[/p]
[p]Home advantage could be key on that front as Bologna have won six of their last eight games at Stadio Renato Dall’Ara (D1, L1), including the last three in a row! They last won four successive home matches in February 2024, and a strong return of just one defeat from their seven home matches against sides beginning this round in the bottom-half (W4, D2, L1) suggests they’ve every chance of repeating the act.[/p]
[p]A 1-1 stalemate against Genoa last time out remarkably made it six draws from seven Serie A matches for Torino (W1), though this still marks their first seven-match unbeaten run in the top-flight since May 2019. Four of their last five outings have now ended 1-1 and their failure to turn those into wins means the Granata remain stranded in mid-table.[/p]
[p]In fact, Torino have emerged victorious just twice in their last 15 games (D8, L5), and recent H2H history suggests that record is unlikely to improve as they’ve failed to win on their last eight visits to Bologna (D5, L3). That run includes successive defeats, and as three of their four Serie A away losses this term came against top-half opposition, the travelling supporters are unlikely to be too confident.[/p]
[p]Key battle: Santiago Castro scored decisively as Bologna knocked Atalanta out of the Coppa Italia last week, with that the fourth of his last six goals to break the deadlock. Torino goalkeeper Vanja Milinković-Savić, who made nine saves from ten shots in Torino’s last away match against Atalanta, has conceded just seven goals in as many personal H2Hs, keeping two clean sheets along the way.[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Only one of the last six H2Hs saw both teams on the scoresheet, with Torino failing to score in each of the previous three.[/p]
