Bologna vs Fiorentina prediction, preview, team news and more | Serie A 2021-22

Serie A continues this weekend and will see Bologna host Fiorentina on Sunday afternoon in the 16th game week of the Italian top-flight.

Bologna picked up a hard-earned three points over Roma in their last game as they defeated Jose Mourinho's side 1-0. The win over I Giallorossi marked the second consecutive win for the hosts and their fourth win in their last five games.

I Rossoblù sit eighth in the league table with 24 points from 15 games. They will be looking to continue their good run when they face Fiorentina on Sunday.

Fiorentina have been very inconsistent this season with a record of losing a game and winning the next for the past two months. They beat Sampdoria 3-1 in their last game and will be hoping they can build on that at the weekend.

I Viola sit sixth in the Serie A with 24 points from 15 games. A win on Sunday would see them edge closer towards the Champions League spots.

Bologna vs Fiorentina Prediction

Bologna have lost just one of their last five games, winning the other four and keeping three clean sheets in the process.

Fiorentina are the only team in the Italian top-flight without a draw in their 15 games so far. Their home and away form lately have been very contrasting. They have won their last four home games and lost their last four away games. That pattern could continue at the weekend.

Prediction: Bologna 2-1 Fiorentina
