Sassuolo vs Bologna Prediction and Betting Tips | May 8th 2023

Sassuolo and Bologna square off at the Mapei Stadium in round 34 of the Italian Serie A on Monday.

Both sides are currently separated by just two points in the league table and we anticipate a thrilling matchup as they pursue a top-half finish.

Sassuolo failed to move into the top half of the table last Wednesday as they suffered a 2-0 loss against Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico.

However, Alessio Dionisi’s side return home, where they are unbeaten in their last five matches, claiming four wins and one draw since February’s 2-0 loss against league champions Napoli.

With 43 points from 33 matches, Sassuolo are currently 13th in the Serie A table, level on points with 12th-placed Udinese.

Meanwhile, Bologna failed to arrest their slump in form as they suffered a disappointing 3-1 loss against Empoli last time out.

The Rossoblù have now gone four straight games without a win, picking up just two points from a possible 12 in that time.

With 45 points from 33 matches, Bologna are currently ninth in the league table, level on points with Monza and Torino.
