1.95Tip and bets
Torino got a very important victory in every sense of the word in the last round, which can restore the team confidence in its strength. At home, the "bulls" will certainly aim for all three points and will clearly be aggressive from the first minutes - it will be difficult for Bologna to remain dry in such a situation. At the same time, the "rossoblu" have gained good form recently, they score regularly away, and the guests are quite capable of responding with one goal.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Forecast - both will score . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.09
