Bologna vs Celtic – Tips, Predictions & HUGE 135/1 Bet Builder

Europa League | 22 January | 17:45
Venue: Renato Dall’Ara


Bologna vs Celtic Preview

Bologna come into this Europa League clash under mounting pressure after slipping to a third defeat in five Serie A matches, losing 2–1 at home to Fiorentina last weekend. That setback followed heavy league losses to Inter Milan (3–0) and Atalanta (2–0), underlining a worrying downturn in domestic form for Vincenzo Italiano’s side.

Although Bologna did manage a 3–2 away win at Verona during this run, it remains their only victory in the last seven matches across all competitions. European form, however, has been far more encouraging, with the hosts bringing a five-match unbeaten run in the Europa League into Thursday’s contest — a key factor that keeps them competitive in this tie.

Celtic have been handed a timely boost in their bid to reach the Europa League play-offs following the return of Martin O’Neill, who has taken charge for the third time overall. The Hoops have responded positively, recording three consecutive wins, including league victories over Dundee United and Falkirk, as well as a 2–0 Scottish Cup win at Auchinleck Talbot.

While domestic momentum has improved, Celtic’s European away form has been mixed, having won, drawn and lost once on the road so far in this Europa League campaign. This trip to Italy represents a stiff test, but renewed confidence could make them competitive.

Team News and Predicted Line-Ups

Bologna Team News

  • Out: Federico Bernardeschi

  • Doubts: Martin Vitík, Jhon Lucumí

Changes are expected following the Fiorentina defeat, with Giovanni Fabbian and Jonathan Rowe both pushing for starts after combining for Bologna’s only goal last weekend.

Possible XI:
Ravaglia; Holm, Casale, Heggem, Miranda; Freuler, Pobega; Orsolini, Fabbian, Rowe; Castro


Celtic Team News

  • Out: Alistair Johnston, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Jota, Kelechi Iheanacho, Marcelo Saracchi

After heavy rotation in the cup, O’Neill is expected to field a stronger XI, with Kasper Schmeichel, Kieran Tierney and Daizen Maeda all set to return.

Possible XI:
Schmeichel; Ralston, Trusty, Scales, Tierney; Engels, McGregor, Hatate; Yang, Maeda, Tounekti

Bologna vs Celtic Prediction

This fixture looks finely balanced. Bologna’s European consistency contrasts with their domestic struggles, while Celtic arrive buoyed by renewed belief under O’Neill. With both sides likely to approach the game cautiously and plenty riding on the outcome, a tight encounter with moments of quality rather than free-flowing football seems likely.

Conclusion

Bologna’s stronger European form should prevent a collapse, but Celtic’s resurgence under Martin O’Neill makes them capable of competing away from home. With both sides keen to avoid defeat in a crucial group-stage clash, a hard-fought draw with limited scoring chances appears the most realistic outcome at the Renato Dall’Ara.
