Bologna vs Aston Villa Moneyline Prediction

Aston Villa secured a spot in the 2025-26 UEFA Europa League quarter-finals after dispatching Lille 1-0 in France and 2-0 at Villa Park. The Midlands club are widely viewed as one of the top contenders to win the trophy, not only because of their dominant run (W9, L1), but also due to their squad’s strength on both sides of the ball.

Bologna haven’t been as dominant as Villa in the Europa League (W5, D4, L1), but they certainly deserve their place in the quarter-finals after eliminating AS Roma in the Round of 16.

That was arguably their toughest test of the season, and their recent results across all competitions have been solid. Including extra time, the Rossoblu have won seven of their last 10 matches across all competitions (W7, D1, L2).

Villa’s recent overall form hasn’t been as strong, with just four wins over their last nine games (W4, D1, L4). However, Unai Emery knows a thing or two about winning in this tournament, and the Villans have posted a W4, L1 record away from home in this Europa League campaign.

Ultimately, the gap in quality should prove decisive, with Villa expected to come away with the win.

Bologna vs Aston Villa Player Prop

Morgan Rogers has been a key attacking threat for the Villans, averaging 1.2 shots and 1.8 chances per game in the current Europa League campaign. Those numbers increase when he starts, rising to 2.2 shots and nearly 1.5 chances per match across all competitions.

With Bologna likely to sit back and play defensively, Rogers will be key to creating space.

Bologna vs Aston Villa Same Game Parlay

Our three-leg parlay backs an Aston Villa win, while also accounting for the possibility of both teams finding the back of the net. BTTS has landed in four of the Villans’ last nine matches across all competitions, as well as in three of Bologna’s last five across Serie A and the Europa League.

The likelihood of an open contest also points toward a relatively high corner total, supported by tactical factors.

Both clubs often play wide and create most of their attacks through their wingers, increasing the chances of frequent crosses and, in turn, corners.

Bologna are averaging 7.4 corners per game in the current Europa League campaign, while Villa are generating 4.9. As a result, a line of at least seven corners should be within reach.

Bologna vs Aston Villa Team News

Bologna Team News 

One of the main issues for Bologna is their injury crisis. Among the players who won’t be available for this fixture are Benjamin Dominguez (hip), Lukasz Skorupski (thigh), and Jens Odgaard (thigh). Meanwhile, Charalampos Lykogiannis (thigh) and Thijs Dallinga (knee) are both considered game-time calls, with final calls expected closer to Thursday’s kick-off.

Aston Villa Team News

Aston Villa are close to full strength. The only absentees are Boubacar Kamara (knee) and Jadon Sancho (shoulder). However, neither would’ve been a starter even if healthy, meaning the club should be able to field a very strong XI for the first leg of this quarter-final.
