Como vs Bologna prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2026-01-09 14:00.
[p]Como will continue their Serie A top-four push this weekend against a Bologna side that have seen their own European hopes falter in recent weeks.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Como thrashed Pisa 3-0 on Tuesday for a third consecutive clean sheet win, taking their shutout tally to nine for the Serie A season, while no side have conceded fewer than their 12 goals this term. The Lariani’s credentials will receive a significant test in the next few weeks as six of their next eight games come against sides starting the round in the top half of the table. That starts here, but home advantage should have Cesc Fà bregas’ men full of belief as they’re unbeaten at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia this season (W7, D3), winning four of their last five matches here.[/p]
[p]Bologna’s top-four push has hit a significant bump in the road in recent weeks, as a 2-0 defeat to Atalanta on Wednesday stretched their winless run in Serie A to six matches (D2, L4). The Rossoblù subsequently start the round seven points adrift of their sixth-placed hosts here and in danger of losing three consecutive games for the first time all season. Vincenzo Italiano’s men return to the road having lost their last away game 3-1 to Inter, but as they were unbeaten in their eight competitive trips prior (W5, D3), this is a fixture that may suit them.[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
