Como vs. Bologna Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Como and Bologna, taking place on Sunday, 15 September 2024, at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia in Como.
Como, Recent Form
Como will not be too disheartened with their 1-0 away defeat at the hands of Udinese who sit 16 places above them in the table. They achieved 51% possession in that match and had 8 strikes at goal, with 0 hitting the target, up against Udinese's tally of 4 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
Manager Cesc Fábregas will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, 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. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.
They have been performing well at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia recently and are unbeaten in their last 8 home games.
Bologna, Recent Form
Grabbing a valuable league point from their recent 1-1 draw against Empoli will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for Bologna. In that game they had 68% possession and managed 14 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Empoli who had 3 attempts and 2 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 7 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 10 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've had a less than ideal run of form recently, winning just 1 of their last 6 games.
Como vs. Bologna Head to head
After a good 5-1 win for Como in this pair's last league encounter, Bologna will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
