Prediction

  • Thiago Motta was visibly annoyed with the refereeing decisions on Thursday evening as Bologna were wrongly disallowed a goal in their 0-0 draw against Monza.
  • Empoli wasted a handful of big chances but finally got off the mark this season as Tommaso Baldanzi's goal against Salernitana gave them their first win and points of the season.
  • Bologna have scored only three goals so far and their fans will be hoping for the new signings to open their account soon.
