✅ Stats before the game. Monza and Bologna meet for the first time in Serie A, but boast eight matches in Serie B (three wins from Emilia, one from Brianza and four draws) and three in the Italian Cup (two wins for the red and white and one for the rossoblú). The last matches between Monza and Bologna date back to Serie C1 (Group A) of the 1994/95 season: 0-1 in Brianza in the first leg match, 1-1 in Emilia in the return leg; if we consider Serie B, on the other hand, the last match dates back to 13 June 1993, Bologna’s 2-1 victory at Monza. Between Serie B, Serie C and the Italian Cup, Monza’s last home win against Bologna was on 23 August 1992 in the Italian Cup: 1-0 after extra time with Delpiano’s goal.
Bologna have never won in their last three away matches against newly promoted teams in Serie A (1N, 2P): the last victory dates back to the 3-2 at Scida against Crotone on 20 March 2021, while the last away win against a newly promoted in the first round dates back to 22 December 2019 against Lecce (3-2). Monza comes from two consecutive away defeats against Empoli and Milan, while they have won the last two games at the U-Power Stadium (against Juventus and Spezia): the last absolute debutant in Serie A to obtain three victories in a row at home is was Frosinone in October 2015.
👉 Lineup BOLOGNA (4-2-3-1): Skorupski – Posch, Lucumi, Soumaoro, Cambiaso – Medel, Dominguez – Aebischer, Ferguson, Barrow – Zirkzee.
