Bologna vs Torino Prediction and Betting Tips | November 27th 2023
Bologna and Torino draw the curtain on round 13 of the Italian Serie A when they square off at the Renato Dall'Ara Stadium on Monday. Thiago Motta’s men have won each of their last four home games across all competitions and will look to continue in the same vein.
Bologna were left spitting feathers just before the international break as they fell to a 2-1 loss against Fiorentina after squandering a plethora of goalscoring chances. Prior to that, Motta’s side were on an 11-game unbeaten run, claiming six draws and five wins, including a 2-0 victory over Hellas Verona in the Coppa Italia on October 31.
With 18 points from 12 matches, Bologna are currently eighth in the Serie A table, just two points off the European qualification places. Meanwhile, Torino were denied a third league win on the spin last time out as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Monza.
Ivan Juric’s men had snapped their run of five straight league games without a win with a 1-0 victory over Lecce on October 28, one week before scraping a 2-1 victory over Sassuolo on home turf.
With 16 points from 12 matches, Torino are currently 11th in the Serie A table but could move into seventh place with all three points on Monday.
