Lecce vs Bologna Predictions

Can Bologna Extend Their Unbeaten Run Against Struggling Lecce?

• Lecce’s home struggles continue – They have scored just nine goals in 11 home games, averaging 0.8 goals per game, making them one of the least threatening home sides in Serie A.
• Bologna’s unbeaten run speaks volumes – They have gone eight matches without defeat, proving they are one of the most in-form teams in the league.
• Lecce’s attack has been misfiring all season – No team in Serie A has failed to score in more matches than Lecce, who have drawn blanks in 11 of their 23 league games.

Best Bet for Lecce vs Bologna

Lecce may have secured a morale-boosting victory over Parma last weekend, but the fight for Serie A survival is far from over. A 3-1 triumph, inspired by Nikola Krstovic and a Santiago Pierotti brace, temporarily lifted them away from the relegation battle, but with just three points separating them from danger, there is no room for complacency. Marco Giampaolo’s men have struggled for consistency this season, and their home form has been particularly underwhelming, with just one win in their last three outings at the Stadio Comunale Via del Mare.

The visit of in-form Bologna presents another major test. Vincenzo Italiano’s side are among the most consistent teams in 2025, going unbeaten in five consecutive league matches and extending their overall run to eight matches without defeat. Despite their strong form, Bologna have often found themselves frustrated away from home, managing just four wins from 11 road trips this season, while drawing five and losing twice. Their push for a European spot remains very much alive, but with Juventus, Lazio, and Fiorentina all within reach, they cannot afford to let crucial points slip in fixtures like this.

Adding to Lecce’s concerns is their poor record against Bologna, having lost six of their last eight meetings in the top flight. That psychological edge could play a role here, but with Bologna possibly missing Riccardo Orsolini and Jens Odgaard, the visitors may not have things all their own way.

Best Bet for Lecce vs Bologna: Draw/Bologna Half-Time/Full-Time

At BettingTips4You, we don’t overload you with multiple selections—we believe in quality over quantity. For this game, our standout bet is Draw/Bologna in the Half-Time/Full-Time market. This reflects Bologna’s ability to grind down opponents over 90 minutes, even if they don’t blow them away early on.

Why This Bet Offers Value

Bologna’s form speaks for itself. They have been one of the most consistent teams in Serie A this year, picking up more points than almost every other side. However, their away matches tend to be tight affairs, with their approach often seeing them wear down opponents before striking in the second half.

Lecce, on the other hand, have been frustratingly blunt in attack, particularly at home. They have scored just nine times in 11 matches on their own turf, averaging less than a goal per game. Worse still, they have failed to score in 11 of their 23 league games—no team in Serie A has drawn a blank more often. This suggests they could struggle to break down Bologna’s organised defence, making an early breakthrough unlikely.

While Bologna’s potential absence of Orsolini and Odgaard is a concern, they still have players capable of stepping up. Santiago Castro, Benjamin Dominguez, and Dan Ndoye will be expected to provide the cutting edge, while their midfield dominance should ensure control of the game.

BettingTips4You.com expert Luca Pratesi sums up our thinking:

“Bologna have developed a knack for breaking teams down methodically. They might not blow Lecce away early, but their superior quality should eventually tell. Expect a tight first half before Bologna step it up after the break.”

Given Lecce’s lack of firepower and Bologna’s strong second-half performances, a 2-1 win for the visitors appears to be the most likely outcome.
