Bologna vs Empoli: prediction for the Serie A match
Bologna haven't lost in three straight games. Can Empoli beat them on Saturday, September 17? Here's our prediction.

Command Analysis

Bologna

Bologna endured a terrible start to the season. They were winless in eight straight games, and the board had no other choice but to sack Sinisa Mihajlovic. Interim coach Luca Vigiani led the Rossoblu to a 2:1 home victory over Fiorentina, which was their first success in the new football year. This week, Thiago Motta was named Bologna's new manager.

Empoli

Empoli endured a slow start to their Serie A campaign, too. Paolo Zanetti's men are yet to win a game this season, but they have managed to stay clear of the relegation zone - the team is in 16th place, two points ahead of Cremonese, who occupy the 18th line. In the previous round, Empoli broke their streak of four draws in a row and suffered a 1:2 defeat to Roma.

Tip and bets
Bologna made many defensive mistakes in the game against Fiorentina - they haven't yet managed to keep a clean sheet in the new season. Empoli have fast forwards and know how to play on counterattacks, so we are convinced that Bologna will concede again. However, the hosts have looked decent on offense in recent games - we expect them to deliver goals, too.
Our prediction – both to score
In the last outing, Bologna prevailed over Fiorentina, proving that the team is on the way out of the crisis. Inspired by the new coach, the Rossoblu should capitalize on their home advantage and win the upcoming game.
