Roma's European Grind vs. Bologna's Surge
Roma's legs might be heavy. They just played a grueling Europa League match on Thursday, a 0-0 draw against Milan that went down to the wire. Bologna, meanwhile, has been resting, their last match a comfortable 2-0 win over Udinese on Sunday. That's a significant advantage for Thiago Motta's side.
The midfield battle between Lorenzo Pellegrini and Lewis Ferguson is the one to watch. Pellegrini dictates Roma’s tempo, but Ferguson’s tireless engine and goal threat from deep could overwhelm him. Bologna’s attack, which has netted 51 goals this season, will smell blood.
**Prediction:** Bologna takes advantage of a tired Roma. Score: Bologna 2, Roma 1.
