Detailed Analysis
On April 24, 2025, Bologna will welcome Empoli to Stadio Renato Dall’Ara for a highly anticipated Coppa Italia clash. With kickoff set for 20:00 CEST, the stakes are high as Bologna aims to capitalize on their recent form and home advantage to progress further in the tournament.
Bologna have been impressive in recent outings, especially at home, where they are unbeaten in their last 10 matches. They’ve notched eight wins and two draws in that run, including a confident 3-0 victory over Empoli in the previous leg. Their disciplined defense and efficient attack have produced a consistent 1.7 goals per game while conceding less than one.
Empoli, meanwhile, have struggled to find their rhythm. The visitors haven’t won in their last 10 matches, drawing five and losing the rest. Their offensive issues are apparent, averaging just 0.5 goals per game and conceding at almost four times that rate. Against a solid side like Bologna, those numbers paint a difficult picture.
Historically, Bologna have also had the upper hand in this fixture, especially at home, where they defeated Empoli 3-0 earlier in the month. This psychological edge, combined with their current momentum, gives them the clear advantage.
Our recommended bet is Bologna to Win & Under 2.5 Goals, offered at 2.54 odds. This pick reflects Bologna’s efficient yet conservative style of play and Empoli’s inability to respond in attack.
In conclusion, expect a controlled, low-scoring game with Bologna dictating the tempo. A 1-0 or 2-0 win looks likely, making this a strong bet for punters seeking value and consistency in midweek cup football.
