Hot tip – Bologna Double Chance

- Bologna have lost only two of their last 19 fixtures in Serie A.
Other tips
Atalanta 2-2 Bologna
- Atalanta scored at least twice in six of their last seven home games in Serie A.
- Bologna notched twice in four of their last six tussles in the division.
Both Teams to Score
- Atalanta scored at least once in each of their last ten home matches in the league.
- Bologna failed to find the net in just one of their last 20 Serie A fixtures.
Player to watch – Giovanni Fabbian
Box-to-box midfielder Giovanni Fabbian has been growing in stature and confidence this season and the 21-year-old chipped in with a goal and an assist in a man-of-the-match performance against Verona last weekend.
Fabbian could be a key performer again
Fabbian, who is an Italian U21 regular, has started just eight times in Serie A this term, though he has nailed down a place in the Bologna XI since the turn of the year. He averages more than one shot per game in the Italian tier and Fabbian’s shooting could be a feature of Sunday’s game again.
