Prediction: 2-2
Udinese
Bologna will look to continue where they left last season when they kick off the new Serie A campaign with a home game against Udinese. The Rossoblu head into the new season without several first-team regulars, which is probably the main reason why home win should not be considered. Key defender Riccardo Calafiori has joined Arsenal, while influential forward Joshua Zirkzee has signed a €42.50m deal with Manchester United. Bologna chiefs have signed the likes of Emil Holm, Thijs Dallinga, and Nicolo Cambiaghi in the summer transfer window.
The Zebrette, on the other hand, rolled over Avellino 4-0 in opening match of their Coppa Italia campaign. Udinese aim to give fans yet another reason to celebrate, but seeing that Bologna are tough to beat at Stadio Renato Dall’Ara, we are tempted to place our bets on draw. A man to watch in the visiting team will be Lorenzo Lucca, who opened his goal-scoring account at the weekend.
