Bologna hasn’t consistently been able to hold out for the entire 90 minutes of games recently. In truth, Bologna has conceded 6 goals in 5 of their last 6 games due to their inability to stop opponents from scoring.
Bologna had won both of their previous home league games coming into this one. In the match before this, Monza and Sampdoria played to a 2-2 draw in Serie A.
Monza had 72% of the possession in that game and made 17 efforts on goal, scoring on five of them. Andrea Petagna (32′) and Matteo Pessina (99′) scored goals for Monza.

The statistics speak for themselves: Monza have allowed goals in 5 of their previous 6 games, totaling 9 goals from the opposition. Monza appears to have some defensive weaker spots.
