Bologna come into this cup match in good spirits, having won their last two games, though they also show some inconsistency with a loss and two draws in their recent run. Palermo are in decent form too, winning their last two matches, but they had a couple of rough results before that. Both teams are scoring and conceding regularly, so this looks like it could be an open game with goals.

Bologna are at home and slightly more settled overall, while Palermo are competitive but a bit up and down. It looks like a close match that could go either way, but Bologna's recent winning run and home advantage give them a slight edge. Expect a tight contest, with Bologna likely to come out on top.
