Sinisa Mihajlovic’s Bologna host Gian Piero Gasperini’s Atalanta, who have just qualified for the Europa League quarter-finals. The side are currently 12th in the table on 33 points and have not won for three matches: after two draws in a row, they lost 1-0 at Fiorentina. Atalanta, as mentioned, have just qualified for the quarter-finals of the Europa League thanks to their 1-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen, while in the previous round of the championship they were unable to go beyond a 0-0 draw at the Ferraris against Genoa. The Orobici, meanwhile, have struggled to score on the road in Serie A and have been held scoreless for three matches in a row. Bologna are without Bonifazi and Sansone, while Dominguez, Kingsley and Santander are also out. Atalanta are without the disqualified Zappacosta and the injured Zapata, while Toloi and Miranchuk are to be assessed.
Atalanta have failed to score in their last 3 Serie A away matches.
There have been 4 Under 2.5 in Atalanta’s last 5 away games in all competitions.
Bologna have won 3 Under 2.5 in a row in the league.
In the first leg, on 28th August in Bergamo, the match between Atalanta and Bologna ended 0-0.
With Zapata’s injury, Atalanta have found themselves with wet hands and have scored less, losing ground in the table. The Under 2.5 is an interesting option in Bologna against a team that has scored just 2 goals in their last 3 league games.
