Bologna vs Genoa Odds and Spreads

Bologna vs Genoa Betting Trends

• The Rossoblu scored at least a goal in their last six home games and are averaging 1.44 goals scored with a rate of 78%
• Bologna keeper Lukasz Skorupski is targeting his fourth successive clean sheet at home in this match
• Beginning the calendar year in 12th place and with a six-point cushion to the relegation places it’s decent for newly promoted Genoa
• The Griffin ended 2023 with an impressive unbeaten three-game run, taking a point against the top two sides at home and winning away at relegation-threatened Sassuolo
• The victory at Sassuolo was only Genoa’s second away from home all season and their second in 26 domestic league away matches

• We’ve seen at least two goals in four of the previous five head-to-heads

Spread Pick: Bologna -½ (+115)

Fifth-place Bologna will be looking to keep Stadio Renato Dall’Ara as a fortress in 2024. Their home record this season is outstanding with seven wins in nine games.

If they can maintain their form from the opening 18 rounds in the second half of the season, then a top-five Seria A finish is more than achievable.

That is something not attained since the 1970-71 campaign, while a return to European football after 22 years could very much be on the cards for Thiago Motta’s side.

After losing to Udinese on the road, they should have enough to return to winning ways, so we will include them in our soccer picks and parlays.

Player Prop Pick: Joshua Zirkzee Score or Assist (+150)

Author of right goals and four assists across all competitions, notably against leaders Inter Milan, Sassuolo, Fiorentina and Torino, Zirkzee is today the club’s highest market value, estimated at $35m.

Make sure you check the official starting lineup before placing your soccer player props bets.

Best Game Prop: Bologna and Total Under 3½ (+130)

The Bologna had not flown this high in 20 years, and it is a masterpiece.

Motta says he has learned a lot from Gasperini and has Jose Mourinho among his teachers. However, the former Inter midfielder will be watching the game from the stands following his sending-off in the last league fixture. While we expect a home win, we will combine a bet on the moneyline with a low-scoring affair for better odds.
