Serie A

Frosinone vs. Bologna, firey fixture at midday

At the Stirpe, both Frosinone and Bologna want the three points: the Ciociari to improve the standings, Bologna to stay in fourth

Big game at 12:30 CEST between Frosinone and Bologna. The hosts come from a draw against Genoa but having only picked up three points in the last 9 games and having not won since 21 January, 3-1 against Cagliari. Bologna, however, has picked up 8 wins in the last 9 games, only being defeated by Inter on 9 March, and won’t want to wake up from the Champions League dream.

DID YOU KNOW?

Since the beginning of February 2024, no team has gained fewer points than Frosinone in Serie A (two in eight matches, level with Salernitana); in the same period, only Inter (25) have collected more points than Bologna (24) in the Italian top-flight. Bologna have won 57 points in 30 Serie A games this season - the last time they collected more points in a whole season in the Italian top-flight (considering three points per win) was in 1966-67 (63), when they ended the season in third place. Only Inter (18) have scored more goals than Bologna (16) in the first 30 minutes of play in this Serie A campaign, while no team has conceded more goals than Frosinone in the first 30 minutes of play (19, level with Salernitana).

HEAD-TO-HEAD

Both Frosinone and Bologna have two wins each in their five previous Serie A meetings (D1). After winning the reverse fixture this season, Bologna could win two games in a row against Frosinone for the first time in the Italian top-flight. Frosinone are unbeaten in their two previous Serie A home games against Bologna, keeping a clean sheet both times (1-0 in February 2016 and 0-0 in August 2018).

PLAYERS

Nadir Zortea is the defender who has provided the most assists in 2024 in Serie A (4), followed by Riccardo Calafiori with three, alongside Raoul Bellanova and Alessandro Bastoni. Riccardo Orsolini is the Italian player who has scored the most goals (10) in the big five European leagues in 2023-24. Furthermore, he is just one goal away from equalling his highest goals tally in a single Serie A season (11 goals in 2022-23). Since the beginning of 2024, only Albert Gudmundsson (27) has created more chances than Alexis Saelemaekers (25) in Serie A. After a goal against Salernitana in the last match played, the Belgian winger could score in two matches in a row for the first time in the Italian top-flight.
