Bologna had a magnificent last season, finishing fourth and securing the Champions League. However, with the latest draw in the CL, they are officially eliminated from the competition by winning six points from eight matches. In Serie A, "Rossoblù" had a terrible start, but as the season progresses, they are getting better. Right now, they are in 8th place with 34 points from 21 matches - only two points away from Europe and five away from the CL spots, but with one game played less.
Como managed to secure promotion last season and are only looking to survive this season in the Italian top flight. Even though football experts did not believe in them at the start of the season, they are holding themselves above the danger zone. Right now, they are in 13th place with 22 points. Still, they are only two points away from dropping to the top relegation zone and will have really tough opponents in the upcoming games - Bologna, Juventus, Fiorentina, Napoli, and AS Roma!
Bologna vs Como pick: Over 2.5 goals
In recent games, Bologna mostly played high-scoring games and were over 2.5 goals in five out of the last seven matches. In the remaining two games when they went under, we saw two goals both against Empoli and Sporting. Also, at home, Bologna were good offensively, scoring two or more goals in the last four games against outstanding teams. So, it is fair to expect at least a couple of goals against Como.
Como were inconsistent in recent games, at least result-wise. But they were really good offensively, scoring five goals in the last two games against Atalanta and Udinese. They also scored at least a goal in eight out of the previous nine games, only failing to score against Inter.
In the first h2h game this season, we saw an exciting 2:2 draw. Considering all the above, we believe that an over 2.5 goals bet seems like the best option for this Serie A tie.

In the last game against Sporting, Lewis Ferguson suffered an injury and had to leave the field after only ten minutes. He will most likely miss at least three to four weeks.
Michel Aebischer and Riccardo Orsolini should remain sidelined with their injuries, while Nicolo Cambiaghi, Oussama El Azzouzi, Jhon Lucumi, and Stefan Posch are questionable.
