Analysis of the match between Bologna and Roma
Bologna FC 1909 have clearly declined in form, losing 4 of their last 6 official matches. As a result, what once looked like a promising end to the season under Vincenzo Italiano is now fading away, with the team eliminated in the Europa League quarter-finals and almost out of contention for European qualification next season. With a relatively thin squad, the Emilia-Romagna side have paid the price for competing on multiple fronts, although their efforts still delivered an exciting campaign for fans.
On the other side, AS Roma are also losing momentum in the race for a top-four Serie A finish, currently trailing Juventus by 5 points, while their rivals remain highly consistent. Since the start of 2026, Roma’s few victories have mostly come against weaker sides such as Pisa, Lecce, Cremonese, and Cagliari.
Apart from a 2-2 draw away at Napoli, Roma have largely disappointed in big matches. More concerning is their poor record against direct competitors like Como and Juventus. Securing a Europa League spot now seems a realistic target for “the Wolves,” even if it may not fully satisfy their supporters.
In head-to-head terms, Roma have struggled, winning just 1 of their last 9 encounters with Bologna. Although the capital club may be more desperate for points while Bologna appear mentally drained, this match is likely to be evenly balanced, with neither side clearly strong enough to secure all three points.
