Bologna vs Genoa

Riccardo Orsolini, who has reached 250 Serie A appearances, has joined Giuseppe Signori (67) in 11th place of the top scorers in Bologna's history in the tournament. The goal scored by the class of 1997 is the latest goal scored by the rossoblù in the competition (98:38).

Santiago Castro (21 years and 2 days) is the youngest player to reach 10 goals in Serie A with the Bologna shirt in the era of three points for a win (since 1994/95).

Bologna returned to win a Serie A match starting from a disadvantage for the first time since 2 March against Cagliari, also at the Dall'Ara: Roberto Piccoli's goal was answered by Riccardo Orsolini's brace.

Genoa are unbeaten in 11 of their last 12 league matches against Bologna (W6 D5), recording six clean sheets; the Emilians' only win in that period came on May 21, 2022 (1-0 at the Ferraris stadium with a goal from Musa Barrow).

Genoa have avoided defeat in their last six away matches against Bologna in Serie A (W3 D3), only twice in their Serie A history have Genoa gone seven consecutive away games without losing against a single opponent: against Cesena (between 1973 and 2011) and against Lucchese (between 1937 and 1951).

Bologna have lost five of their last six league games (W1), as many as they lost in all of Vincenzo Italiano's previous 35 Serie A matches (W16 D14 L5).

Bologna have scored a maximum of one goal across their first three Serie A games of the season for the first time since 2018/19 (0). They could also lose three of their first four league games for the first time since 2020/21 (W1, L3).

Bologna have lost only one of their last 12 Serie A matches at the Dall'Ara (W8 D3), though that defeat came against Genoa on May 24. Bologna have scored 24 goals in home games during this period, an average of two per game.
