Fiorentina vs. Bologna odds
1 – A draw – 13/5
2 – Bologna under 2.5 total goals – 1/12
3 – Total goals scored under 2.5 – 19/20
4 – Both teams to score – 11/13

Bologna head off to face Fiorentina this weekend, with Thiago Motta’s side one of the most in-form teams in Serie A in recent weeks.
As part of their push towards a possible European qualification challenge, Bologna have amassed an incredible run of ten league matches unbeaten, with their sole league loss of the campaign coming on the opening weekend at home to Inter. The only reason they have not broken into the top four is a struggle to turn draws into wins and that gives an out-of-form Fiorentina a chance to sneak a point in this encounter.
Bologna have drawn four games away from home and that will give Fiorentina hope, despite their own recent streak of three successive home losses, including defeats in Florence to Empoli and Juventus. If Bologna had broken that streak at some point this season, they could be tipped to win this one, but Fiorentina should be able to battle out a draw.
Only one of Bologna’s games on the road have included over 2.5 goals scored in total by both teams at full time and Vincenzo Italiano’s Fiorentina have not scored in their last three games – and are unlikely to make a dramatic reversal in front of goal against a solid Bologna side.
A draw would be a good result for Fiorentina but it would disrupt an upward curve for Bologna, as they aim to close the gap on the teams above them by the end of November.
