Bologna Win or Draw and Under 3.5 Goals
Despite a weak recent form, Bologna are favorites to win here. However, we will cut the risk and combine the win with a draw since Spezia drew and won three of their last four trips. In addition, six of Bologna’s last seven home games saw under 3.5 goals. Likewise, Spezia’s five of their last six on the road games had the same number of goals.
Bologna -0.5 Corners Handicap
The last time these two met, the corners count was in favor of Bologna by 6-3. Additionally, the Rossoblu typically win 5.50 corners when playing at Dall’’Ara. While Spezia’s average number of corners when playing away is 4.62. Thus we think Bologna are capable of covering the -0.5 corners handicap in this match.
Both Teams To Score No
According to the statistics, there is a 56% chance that both teams will not score on Monday. To justify, Bologna couldn’t find the back of the net in their last three matches. Spezia meanwhile, had six of their last ten away matches BTTS not happening.

Preliminary review and match prediction for Bologna vs Spezia
Both Bologna and Spezia are very far from the bottom three in the Serie A standings. To point out, Bologna have 28 points, seven ahead of 18th placed Cagliari. Spezia meanwhile have 26 points and are even closer to the danger zone. Thus, this match is crucial in terms of improving positions for each team.
It was a promising start for the Rossoblu in August but things got unstable moving on. Recently, Mihajlovic’s is not able to grab all three points in their last five fixtures. Moreover, the hosts were on target just twice in the process as their scoring average is 1.21 for the season. Hence, Mihajlovic must work hard till Monday to find the right strategy to come out of this slump.
Spezia lost to Fiorentina last time out suffering their first defeat in five games. Notably, When playing against the bottom seven clubs, Spezia won four drew three, and lost three. In addition, during the season, the Little Wings had some great away wins over Napoli and Milan making them a very dangerous opponent when playing on the road.
Bologna vs Spezia prediction
The importance of this game will keep both teams tense and the goal chances rare. As a result, we might see a low-scoring game as was the case in their last meeting. In addition, we will combine the total goals with a home win or draw double chance.
Safe Bet
The average number of corners in Bologna’s games is 8.50 and in Spezia’s 10.04. Vbet is offering odds of 1.50 for under 11 corners in Monday’s fixture. Hence, the probability is quite high for this bet to win.
Quick Rich
With the level of both teams being very close to each other, there is always the chance of a stalemate. Moreover, both teams may prefer to win a point rather than lose three, consequently, we might see a draw in this match and with odds of 3.68, we find it a bet for a quick profit.
Bologna vs Spezia First Goalscorer
Marko Arnautovic is Bologna’s top scorer this season with six goals in Serie A and eight in all competitions. Notably, the Austrian also plays for his country’s national team and scored 32 times in 96 caps. With a height of 1.92, Arnautovic is a big problem for defenses in aerial duels. We will back him to open the scoring in this match.
