Bologna welcome the visitors Crotone in the Italian Coppa Italiana – 1/16 Finals. The match will be held on Tuesday, December 4th at the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara (Bologna).
Bologna are not doing great in this Serie A indeed. The team find themselves in the relegation zone, and they got only two wins in the championship. At this, their strive to win is increasing with each coming match. Winning over the lower-class opponent in the National Cup is much easier than doing so in the Serie A. Bologna are, in fact, winless in five league rounds. They show decent football though, and they lost only once, to the strong Atalanta; but they took points from the clubs like Fiorentina, Sassuolo, and Torino, which, with all due respect to Crotone, clearly surpass it.

Crotone have dropped out the elite of the Italian football last season, and they currently represent the Serie B in the Cup. We should say that they perform very poor, struggling for survival. They are only two points off the relegation zone. In thirteen rounds, the team had seven defeats, losing three in four latest matches. And this all is about the Serie B. Even facing the present Bologna, they are considered outsider, especially given they play away.
Well, what does it amount to? The Tuesday Cup match will see two teams showing bad performance in their national leagues. The class difference is obvious though. One team represent the Serie A, competing the strongest Italian clubs; the other fight for survival in the Serie B with the opponents’ level much lower. We consider Bologna a clear favorite in the coming Cup match – they must win on their soil anyways.
Prediction for the match: Bologna to win home.
