Bologna extended a frustrating winless streak to four matches across all competitions as they shared the spoils on matchday 3 of Serie A. J. Doig broke the deadlock for the visitors in the 19th minute, before R. Piccoli levelled shortly after half-time with an assist from J. Miranda. V. Adzic quickly restored the lead for the visitors in the 56th minute, only for A. Dovbyk to strike in the 90th minute and rescue a draw. Bologna finished 8th in this competition last season with 56 points, while Sassuolo finished 11th with 49 points.
The hosts arrived at the fixture sitting 17th in the table after two matches, while Sassuolo occupied 11th position. Despite dominating possession with 62% of the ball and firing 21 shots, Bologna could not find a winning formula to alter their early-season struggles. The visitors proved dangerous on the counter, with V. Adzic earning a standout 7.9 rating for his efforts, while Lewis Ferguson stood out for the hosts with an 8.2 rating.
Historical meetings between these clubs recently favoured Bologna, who won 1-0 in their most recent encounter on 15 March 2026. Records since 2023 show Bologna with two wins and two draws against Sassuolo, leaving the away side still searching for a victory in that span. Following this draw, Bologna moved to 15th place in the table, while Sassuolo edged up to 10th position.
Looking ahead to the next round of fixtures on 13 September, Bologna travel away to face Napoli. Sassuolo return home to host Juventus on the same date.
