Fiorenitina
Stadio Renato Dall’Ara will host Wednesday’s football game between Bologna and Fiorentina, the two top-table sides. The Rossoblu aim to build on back-to-back wins over Sassuolo (4-2) and Lecce (4-0) and they are likely to adopt yet another attack-minded approach. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be winger Riccardo Orsolini, who scored a brace at the weekend, while Switzerland international Michel Aebischer is back from suspension.
The Viola, on the other hand, rolled over Frosinone 5-1 in their last home game, but given their difficulties on the road, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the home team. Luca Ranieri returns from suspension, while Wednesday’s clash comes too early for Christian Kouame, who represented Ivory Coast at the Africa Cup of Nations. In their last meeting at the venue Bologna defeated Fiorentina 2-1.
Highlighted Player (Christian Kouame):
Christian Kouame is an Ivory Coast international who has been playing for Serie A side Genoa since 2018. Kouame started his youth career at Prato and after ending his loan spells with the likes of Sassuolo and Inter, he returned to Stadio Lungobisenzio.
The 185-cm-tall forward made his professional debut with Prato on September 6, 2015 in a 2-1 loss to Pisa. Christian Kouame started the match, but he was replaced by Alberto Aladje after 66 minutes. The Genoa attacker, though, has yet to earn a call-up for the Ivory Coast national team. He has two caps for the Ivory Coast U23 team, but he is still eyeing his senior team debut.
His main position is centre-forward, but he is used as both left and right winger as well. The Genoa footballer was born in Abijan on December 6, 1997 and he has a contract with the Rossoblu until June 30, 2023.
