Bologna – Sassuolo

The Serie A clash at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara ended in a lively 2‑2 draw, leaving Bologna still anchored at 16th with just one point from four games, while Sassuolo remain comfortably in the top half on nine points. Both sides shared the spoils after a back‑and‑forth encounter that saw the hosts improve their goal difference to –3, still trailing Sassuolo’s +1. The result maintains the season’s head‑to‑head balance, with the two teams having met only once before and that match also finishing level. Bologna’s three defeats and single draw underline a tough start, whereas Sassuolo’s two wins, a draw and a loss keep them within striking distance of the European spots.
