Bologna vs Roma Prediction | Serie A MD34 2026

Bologna welcome Roma to the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara on Matchday 34 of the 2025-26 Serie A season in what promises to be a keenly contested mid-table clash. With no bookmaker odds or league table data available, this analysis is built around recent form, tactical tendencies, and structural match factors. Bologna's recent run has been disappointing. A 2-0 defeat at Juventus was their latest result, continuing a run that also included a home loss to Lazio. Their only win in the last three came away to Cremonese — a useful result but against weaker opposition. At home, Bologna have shown vulnerability when facing organized, direct teams, which Roma can certainly be on their best day. Roma enter in markedly better shape across a wider sample of fixtures. Their 5-2 loss to Inter remains the most alarming result, but context matters: Inter away is one of the toughest assignments in Italy, and Roma have since responded with discipline. The 3-0 win over Pisa, the 1-0 against Lecce, and the 1-1 with Atalanta tell a story of a team that, when motivated and organized, can control games and grind out results. The Atalanta draw is the standout — earning a point against one of the continent's in-form sides is no small feat. At Dall'Ara, Roma have sufficient quality to exploit Bologna's defensive weaknesses. The Giallorossi's attacking line has looked sharp, and with momentum on their side, an away win feels the most likely outcome. A draw remains possible if Bologna can rally on home soil, but their recent performances at home have not been convincing. Predicted outcome: Roma win 2-1. Both teams are expected to score given each side's defensive frailties in recent weeks.
