Salernitana vs Bologna Prediction
Salernitana have one win in 15 league games. They have lost nine without scoring. They have the worst defensive record in the league and the second-worst attacking record, scoring 10 times in 14 games, with six of them at home.
Veteran goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa is the only absentee for head coach Filippo Inzaghi through injury, so Benoit Costil should start. They have not scored in three of their last five league outings.
Bologna, meanwhile, have lost just once in Serie A since August, with that defeat coming at Fiorentina. They are winless on the road this season, scoring six times and conceding seven times.
Manager Thiago Motta remains without the services of Tommaso Corazza, Kevin Bonifazi, Lorenzo De Silvestri, Jesper Karlsson, Oussama El Azzouzi and Riccardo Orsolini, so he could field an unchanged XI from their last game.
The last three meetings between the two teams have ended in draws. Considering Bologna's winless run on the road this season, a low-scoring draw could ensue.
Prediction: Salernitana 1-1 Bologna
