Napoli reach the fourth round with three points from three games: one win and two defeats, five goals scored and five conceded, thirteenth place. At the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona they have played once and lost, scoring one and conceding two; on the road the record reads one win and one defeat in two trips, four goals scored and three conceded. The latest round ended with a 3-2 defeat in Milan against Inter, before that came the 2-1 home loss to Como and further back the 2-0 win away at Genoa. Earlier outings, before the league campaign, brought a 6-2 against Aris Thessalonikis and a 1-1 with Celta Vigo. Bologna have one point from three rounds in fifteenth: one draw and two defeats, two goals scored and four conceded. They have played a single away game, lost 1-0, while at home the record is one draw and one defeat in two matches, with two goals scored and three conceded. The 2-2 at home to Sassuolo is their latest result, before that came the 0-1 at Atalanta and before that the 0-1 at home to Lazio; further back a 0-1 at Brighton and a 1-4 against Pisa. The head-to-head record shows two wins each and one draw in the last five meetings: on 11 May 2026 Bologna won 3-2 in Naples, while on 22 December 2025 Napoli had won 2-0, also at home. On 9 November 2025 Bologna won 2-0 in front of their own crowd and on 7 April 2025, again in Emilia, it finished 1-1; on 25 August 2024 Napoli closed it out 3-0 at home. The Serie A average is 2.79 goals per game. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
