Bologna vs Monza Prediction and Betting Tips | 18th January 2025

Bologna host Monza at the Renato Dall' Ara on Saturday in Serie A, looking to build on the high of their last game. The Rossoblu are coming off the back of an impressive 2-2 draw away to reigning champions Inter Milan on Thursday.

Santiago Castro fired them in front after just 15 minutes, but the Nerazzurri struck twice before halftime to lead 2-1 at the break.

Vincenzo Italiano's side came back to haunt their mighty hosts again in the second half as Emil Holm made it 2-2 in the 64th minute, and that's how it ended.

Now, with 30 points from 19 games, Bologna remain in eighth position in the league standings but will aim to climb further up.

They have an important Champions League game against Borussia Dortmund coming up next week, so the Emilia-Romagna side could make a few changes to their starting XI.

Now in their third consecutive top-flight season since gaining promotion in 2022, Monza find themselves in a relegation battle once again.

The Lombardy minnows have won a meager two games since the start of the current league campaign and languish at the foot of the table with only 13 points in the bag, although they surprised Fiorentina with a 2-1 win at home on Monday.
