Salernitana, Recent FormSalernitana will have been reasonably pleased with their 1-1 draw against AC Milan, not least because of the valuable point gained. They achieved 36% possession in that match and had 6 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against AC Milan's tally of 24 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
Manager Paulo Sousa will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, with them having managed to score 4 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 7 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 league games. The defensive quality of his current squad will be troubling Sousa of late, his defence having only notched up 1 clean sheet from their last 6 home games.
They've had a terrible run of form at Stadio Arechi recently and having lost 4 of their last 6 home games managing just 1 win.
Bologna, Recent FormBologna will have been quite satisfied taking a point from their last match against Lazio, which ran out a 0-0 draw. Their share of possession in that meeting was 54%, while racking up 16 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target. Lazio had 5 shots on goal with 2 on target.
Thiago Motta will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 5 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 4 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 4 of their last 6 matches. Their defensive record does not make good reading so far this season as they have conceded at least 1 goal in 21 of their 26 league games.
It's been mixed fortunes for Bologna away from home recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games on the road.
Having scored 4 goals in his last 6 league games for Bologna, Riccardo Orsolini will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
In the previous encounter between these sides, both teams grabbed goals, with the match finishing in a 1-1 draw.
The Rossoblu defence has struggled against Salernitana in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 5 games.
The last 2 league meetings between these teams has ended with a share of the spoils but Salernitana will be slighlty more concerned that they have not won this fixture in 3 games.
There is only really one injury concern for the Salernitana manager Paulo Sousa ahead of this clash, with William Troost-Ekong (Leg) missing out, which gives Sousa a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Thiago Motta has a number of injury concerns in his Bologna squad to contend with: Nicola Bagnolini (Shoulder), Nicolás Domínguez (Physical discomfort) and Riccardo Orsolini (Physical discomfort)
