Bologna Pisa 2025-10-05 16:00 Betting tips

Bologna are displaying polarizing form depending on the venue. In the first five matchdays, the team has earned 7 points, with all points coming at home: two victories against Genoa (2-1) and Como (1-0). Away from home, the club lost all three matches – to Roma, Milan, and Aston Villa – with an identical 0-1 scoreline. Their attacking line lacks efficiency, with just 5 goals in 5 matches, but their defense at the Renato Dall'Ara has been reliable, conceding only 1 goal in two home fixtures. Their current DWLWL form highlights inconsistency, but exclusively in away conditions.

Pisa are in deep crisis, sitting in 18th position with just 2 points after 5 rounds. The team's DLLLD form indicates one draw and four defeats in their last five outings. Their attacking play is particularly alarming: in three home matches, the club has failed to score a single goal, which is the worst record in the league. The only positives are a draw away at Atalanta (1-1) and scoring two goals against Napoli, which, however, wasn't enough to avoid a 2-3 defeat. Overall, they have conceded 3 goals in away matches while scoring 3.

Statistical insights confirm a significant imbalance. Bologna have a 100% home win record this season (2 out of 2), whereas Pisa have not won a single league match (0 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses). The hosts' goal difference is neutral (0), but it's positive at home (+2). The visitors have a negative goal difference (-3). A key metric is Pisa's goal drought in away games: 0 goals in their last three matches across all competitions. Meanwhile, Bologna have conceded in every one of their away matches but demonstrate defensive solidity at home.

The tactical setup is predetermined by the visitors' current problems. Pisa are most likely to adopt a defensive approach, trying to withstand the hosts' pressure and utilize set-pieces. Their lack of goals in recent rounds points to systemic failures in their attacking patterns. Bologna, accustomed to dominating at home, will control possession and look for openings against Pisa's weak defense, which has conceded 6 goals in 5 matches. The main threat is likely to come from quick counter-attacks down the flanks and second-phase play.

Given Bologna's absolute home supremacy and Pisa's catastrophic finishing problems, the most probable outcome is a confident home victory. Recommendation: Home Win (1) with the most likely scoreline being 2-0. This pick is based on Bologna's reliable home defense and Pisa's inability to score in away matches. An alternative score is 1-0, should the visitors put up stubborn defensive resistance.
