Based on last 50 matches in "Italy. Serie A", up to 01/18/2025
To build a prediction for the Bologna - Monza match, scheduled for 18 January 2025, several key factors could influence the outcome. Bologna have played 50 matches, in which they won 23 of them, drew 19 times and lost 8 matches. Monza, having played 50 matches, won 10 times, drew 16 matches and lost 24 defeats. In the league, Bologna average 1.5 goals scored per game and 1.1 conceded. Monza average 1 scored and 1.4 conceded. These sides last met on 2 December 2024 at Bologna's ground, where the home side came out on top.
Considering Monza's position, they simply need a win! Over twenty matches played, the team has scored ten goals in the first half while conceding sixteen. I think Bologna will be under pressure today, and I expect Monza to score in the first half.
Although Monza keeps suffering defeats, they try to score and score in almost every match. In Monza's last five matches, both teams scored. In their last four matches, Bologna scored two goals per match.
In this match, I will try to place a Total Under 2.5 bet. Games involving both teams that go over this total usually end with a penalty or an own goal. Far fewer goals are scored from open play than would be desirable. The only things that could disrupt my bet are a penalty or an accidental own goal... Show more
