Napoli vs Bologna Timeline & Historical Context

The Napoli vs Bologna timeline in the recent data begins with a clear home win for Napoli on 25 August 2024 in Serie A Regular Season - 2. At Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, Napoli beat Bologna 3-0, having led 1-0 at half-time. That result underlined Napoli’s ability to control this fixture on home soil.

The following meeting came on 7 April 2025 in Serie A Regular Season - 31 at Stadio Renato Dall'Ara. Bologna, at home, fell behind 0-1 by half-time but responded after the break to secure a 1-1 draw. That match highlighted Bologna’s capacity to recover against Napoli, especially in front of their own fans, and marked the only draw in the recent sequence.

The rivalry then intensified in the 2025 Serie A season. On 9 November 2025, Bologna hosted Napoli again in Serie A Regular Season - 11 and produced a strong 2-0 home win after a goalless first half. That was Bologna’s only victory in these five meetings and showed they can shut out Napoli when their defensive structure holds. The balance swung back in Napoli’s favour on 22 December 2025 in the Super Cup Final at King Saud University Stadium in Riyadh, where Napoli, as the designated home side, defeated Bologna 2-0, leading 1-0 at the interval. Finally, on 11 May 2026 in Serie A Regular Season - 36 at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, Bologna edged a high-scoring 3-2 away win after leading 2-1 at half-time, proving they can also be dangerous visitors in Naples.

Historical Statistical Verdict

Putting the historical and current numbers together, Napoli enter this Serie A clash with a modest historical advantage and stronger underlying attacking metrics. The head-to-head record over the last five competitive meetings favours Napoli with 3 wins to Bologna’s 1, and an 8-6 goal edge, while the venue split confirms that Stadio Diego Armando Maradona has generally been a positive setting for the hosts despite Bologna’s notable 3-2 away win on 11 May 2026. Recent league form in 2026 also leans slightly towards Napoli, who are scoring more regularly than Bologna, even if both sides are conceding at comparable rates. Overall, the stats suggest Napoli have the clearer platform, but Bologna’s ability to take points both home and away in this matchup means the contest should not be treated as one-sided.
