Saturday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me head to Serie A, and I’ve highlighted a goals-based selection in one of the fixtures.
⚽️ Bologna vs Monza
🇮🇹 Serie A
⏰ Saturday 31 October, 14:00
Goals look on the cards at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara on Saturday afternoon as resurgent Bologna host newly-promoted Monza in Serie A.
Raffaele Palladino’s hosts have scored 12 goals across their opening nine Serie A contests this season, with nine (75%) of them coming across their last four encounters.
After failing to score in each of their opening two league outings this campaign, The Rossoblu have found the back of the net in each of their last five and six of their past seven – scoring on multiple occasions in three of their previous four – and will be confident of continuing their recent form in front of goal against a Monza backline that has recorded a solitary shutout this season, shipping a league-high 22 goals.
Ivan Juric’s visitors have scored an impressive 16 goals across their opening nine matches since their return to the Italian top flight, with seven (44%) of them coming on their travels.
The Biancorossi have found the back of the net in all nine (100%) of their league clashes this term – scoring on multiple occasions in five (56%) of them – and will look to maintain their goal-scoring record against a Bologna backline that has recorded a solitary shutout in Serie A this season.

Bet of the Day
Monza’s opening nine matches since promotion back to the Italian top flight have averaged a league-high 4.22 goals per game, with Over 2.5 Goals paying out in eight (89%) of them.
Over 2.5 Goals has also paid out in three of Bologna’s most recent four Serie A contests, and I’m backing that trend to continue in Emilia-Romagna on Saturday afternoon.
- Over 2.5 Goals
