Bologna were held by Udinese to a 1-1 home draw

The late goal from forward Alexis Saelemaekers kept the Rossoblu from jumping ahead of Juventus for third place in the rankings. With 65% of the possession, Bologna was unable to generate clear-cut opportunities and finished with an xG [expected goals] statistic of 0.72. However, Sam Beukema, the defender, was sent off in the last 25 minutes, forcing them to play with 10 men. Prior to halftime, Martín Payero's goal gave the Friulians a crucial point in their battle to stay in the league.

Bologna manager Thiago Motta, who has apparently decided to join Juventus as head coach for the upcoming campaign, responded to the outcome by acknowledging his squad wasn't aggressive enough against the Zebrette. In his news conference following the game, he stated, "It was a complicated match against a team that's in a very difficult position in the standings."
