Sunday’s early fixture is Cesena’s visit to Bologna. Cesena have got off to a horrific start in the league this season, despite the excitement among their fans when they signed Adrian Mutu from Fiorentina during the summer. With just three points from ten games, they occupy the bottom spot in Serie A. Coach Marco Giampaolo was sacked following a 2-0 defeat at Parma during the ninth round of fixtures, but his replacement Daniele Arrigoni could only manage a 1-0 home loss to Lecce in his debut.

Bologna Coach Stefano Pioli was also appointed since the beginning of this season. His record so far at Bologna is three wins and two defeats from five games, and he will be targeting another win on Sunday. Cesena have been struggling in front of goal - they have scored just three times in ten games – and the fact that they couldn’t score at home against a poor Lecce side hardly inspires confidence, especially when you consider the fact that Lecce were reduced to ten men before the hour mark.
Bologna are reasonably reliable at the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara, and I like the odds on them winning while keeping a clean sheet here.
Prediction - Bologna to win to nil – 3pts
Match odds: Bologna 10/11
Draw 9/4
AC Milan 3/1
Bologna to win to nil 21/10
