After holding the Serie A champions to a draw in midweek, Bologna will expect to improve their prospects of European qualification when meeting rock-bottom Monza on Saturday.
Still seeking their first success since Christmas, the Rossoblu must take on an away side buoyed by finally ending a long winless streak.
We say: Bologna 1-0 Monza
After taking a point off both Roma and Inter at the start of 2025, Bologna should belatedly celebrate their first win of the year.
They are particularly tough to beat at the Dall'Ara, while Monza have won just one away game all season long.

Two weeks on from their clash in the Supercoppa Italiana, both Juventus and AC Milan will seek maximum points from a heavyweight contest on Saturday evening, when the teams meet in Turin.
After Milan battled back to beat Juve in Saudi Arabia, the pair reconvene in Serie A, where they trail behind Italy's top four.
We say: Juventus 1-0 AC Milan
After a dull goalless draw in the league earlier this season - and an eventful encounter in the Supercoppa Italiana - it might be a one-goal game on Saturday.
Both sides have several flaws - as evidenced by their modest placing in the table - but Juve's solid defence can frustrate most teams, and they may finally hang on to a lead.

Two of Italy's top three convene in Bergamo on Saturday evening, as Scudetto rivals Atalanta BC and Napoli vie for victory at the Gewiss Stadium.
The visitors have recently overtaken their hosts as Serie A leaders, and they will be gunning for revenge after a shocking 3-0 home defeat in November's reverse fixture.
We say: Atalanta BC 1-1 Napoli
Chasers Atalanta excel at home, while Serie A leaders Napoli are a force to be reckoned with on the road.
Therefore, an intense contest between two of Italy's most respected coaches could end with the spoils shared, perhaps handing an advantage to Inter.
