VS
AS Roma vs Bologna is a meeting in which Roma’s broader authority meets a challenger capable of turning the script. Roma hold the stronger historical profile, yet Bologna’s 4–3 extra-time Europa League victory in Rome on 19 March 2026 showed how quickly the balance can shift. A future encounter carries a clear question: can Roma turn their standing into control, or can Bologna again make an ambitious contest uncomfortable?

Stats for this game
Matchup AS Roma VS Bologna
Roma’s larger share of the matchup
Roma have taken more wins than Bologna across the broader history, giving this matchup a recognisable hierarchy without making every meeting one-sided. A 2–0 Roma win at Bologna on 25 April 2026 underlined that edge, while Roma’s 5–0 home victory on 29 September 2013 remains a clear example of their ability to create separation. Bologna’s answers matter because they keep the profile competitive rather than purely ceremonial.
European meetings changed the emphasis
The Europa League tie in March 2026 supplied a useful illustration of that tension. Bologna drew 1–1 at home on 12 March before winning 4–3 after extra time in Rome on 19 March. Roma then won 2–0 in Bologna in Serie A on 25 April, restoring the sense of a contest that can swing between authority and disruption. Future meetings remain interesting for that reason: Roma’s established weight can be tested by Bologna’s willingness to challenge the hierarchy when the occasion demands it.
