Our prediction for this Serie A match:
After dropping two points in a 2-2 draw with Genoa, Napoli will look to return to winning ways in the Serie A when they take on Bologna on Matchday 5. The Partenopei came from behind to share the spoils with the Rossoblu, but they need to start winning on a regular basis if they are to defend their title. Giacomo Raspadori is pushing for a start after scoring a beautiful goal as a substitute at the weekend, while there are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team.
The Rossoblu, on the other hand, aim to extend their unbeaten run to four games and seeing that they have been involved in some low-scoring games at the start of the season, under 2.5 goals betting option should be considered. Both Alexis Saelemaekers and Adama Soumaoro are out of contention with injuries, but they should be the only absentees in the home team.
