Analysis & Preview
Parma travel to Stadio Renato Dall'Ara to take on Bologna in Serie A (matchday 7). The game is scheduled for Sunday 6 October 2024 at 15:00 UK time.
Form Analysis
Looking at their last 10 matches, Bologna stand at 2W 6D 2L — 1.20 PPG. Last five: L D D W D. They are averaging 1.20 goals per game and conceding 1.40 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.
Bologna's home record over their last 10 home games: 3W 6D 1L (1.50 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.40 goals scored and 0.80 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from their last 10 home games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground.
Across their last 10 games, Parma have recorded 2W 5D 3L — 1.10 PPG. Last five: W L L D L. They are scoring at 1.70 per game and conceding 1.50. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings (10%). Both teams have scored in 90% of their matches — a high rate that makes Yes a well-evidenced angle from their form.
On the road, Parma have gone 3W 6D 1L in their last 10 away fixtures (1.50 PPG). Away from home they average 1.30 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 80% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: Bologna 1.20 PPG, Parma 1.10 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
In-Play Data
Bologna trading profile (last 44 games, 21 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 67% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 54% of the time; of the 12 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 58%; BTTS occurs in 43% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 33% of games (home games).
Parma trading profile (last 44 games, 21 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 67% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 60% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 50% of those occasions; of the 10 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 60%; BTTS occurs in 62% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 62% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Bologna 50% versus Parma 66%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Bologna 43% | Parma 54%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Bologna 1.69 xG and Parma 1.06 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Bologna attack 0.938 / defence 0.881 | Parma attack 0.953 / defence 1.223. League average goals — home 1.472 / away 1.265. Parma's defence rating of 1.223 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Bologna's projected output up. Data: built from Bologna's last 44 games and Parma's last 6.
Result probabilities: Bologna 49% | Draw 30% | Parma 21%. Fair-value odds: Bologna 2.04 | Draw 3.30 | Parma 4.82. Bologna hold a narrow Poisson edge at 49% — the draw (30%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 52% | BTTS Yes probability 56% | Total xG 2.75. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 52%/48% — the total xG of 2.75 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS Yes at 56% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Bologna are the pick at 49% — moderate model lean. With a 30% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Bologna offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
Poisson projects 2.75 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 52% probability — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 56%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Bologna 50% (last 10 home games) | Parma 80% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Bologna and Parma finished level at 0-0 at Stadio Renato Dall'Ara, Regular Season - 7, in the Serie A. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Bologna 1.69 xG and Parma 1.06 xG, a combined 2.75. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Bologna fell 1.7 short of their projected output. Parma landed 1.1 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Bologna attack 0.94 / defence 0.88 against Parma attack 0.95 / defence 1.22, drawn from 44/6 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Bologna 49% | Draw 30% | Parma 21%, with Bologna to win its most likely call at 49%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 30%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 52%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 79% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 56% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 49% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Bologna 43%, Parma 54%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 58%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Bologna's trading profile (44 games, 21 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 50% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 39% of the time, and duly kept one; they fail to score in 25% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Parma's trading profile (44 games, 21 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 66% of their matches — today it did not.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Bologna 1.70 PPG, Parma 1.84 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the draw fit that even billing. Bologna (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.71 scoring average — below par going forward. Parma (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.67 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.05 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). The data was on the wrong side of this result more often than not — a reminder that a single match sits well inside the model's variance.
