The Red-Blue, although they scored only two points in the last two meetings, can certainly take this mini-break to their credit. After all, the team faced more than tough opponents. First, Bologna hosted at their stadium Roma, led 2:1 until the last minutes, but already in the penalty shootout - 2:2.
Then Bologna met on the road with Inter and here already got back from 1:2 on their own. In the 64th minute Emil Holm equalized the score, and they kept the draw until the end - 2:2. Now Bologna have 30 points, they are in eighth place in the standings and just two points behind the European Cup zone.
Recall also that next week Bologna will resume play in the Champions League. However, in the seventh round, the Red-Blues will meet Borussia Dortmund on their home field as a team that has lost its chances of qualifying for the playoffs.
Monza
After replacing Alessandro Nesta with Salvatore Bocchetti as head coach, the Red-Whites lost two matches in a row with the same score of 1:2 - away to Parma and at home to Cagliari. However, in the last round Monza still managed to score their first points after the coaching change, beating Fiorentina, one of the leaders of the current season (2:1).
Monza remained in last place in the standings, but after such a landmark success, the situation does not look so hopeless. However, the gap from the saving 17th line is still quite large - six points.

Expert Betting Tips
Bologna scored only two points in the last three rounds, first unexpectedly lost to Verona, and then played a draw with Roma and Inter. That said, there are few questions about the quality of football for the Rossoblu lately. In addition, before this stretch the team of Vincenzo Italiano had a long successful series in the championship, where wins were significantly more than losses and draws. Here we bet on the home team, because Monza, the last team in the league, even after the victory over Fiorentina, is not at all believable this season.
