Bologna form and stats

In the previous season, Bologna's league stats were 10 wins, 11 draws and 17 losses, resulting in 12th position in the Serie A. In these 38 matches they scored 51 goals and conceded 65. Playing at their own stadium in the previous season Bologna produced 7-5-7 (win-draw-lost) with 33 goals and 33 conceded.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Bologna matches with similar probabilities have ended with three wins, one draw and one defeat (from five games).

It's been an intense period of training leading up to this game for Bologna, who have participated in four training matches. Bologna have won 3 of these, drawn 0 and were beaten in 1 game.

Salernitana form and stats

A job perfectly done for Salernitana last season as they secured promotion from Serie B. With a grand total of 19 wins, 12 draws and 7 defeats the season objective was secured. Of these wins, 8 were in away matches.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Salernitana playing away, we found four games. Results were zero away wins, one draw and three home wins.

It's a day of discovery for Salernitana as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Salernitana have played six with the results W4-D0-L2 (win-draw-lost). In these games Salernitana has scored 13 goals and conceded 7 times.
