Paul Higham fancies a few goals at Fiorentina as part of his 4/15.00 Bet Builder treble for their Coppa Italiah clash with Bologna.


There's a tasty Coppa Italia quarter-final tie going down on Tuesday as Fiorentina host Bologna.

Just a point separates fourth-placed Fiorentina and Bologna just a place below as both sides push for a top four spot in Serie A.

Their pursuit of the Champions League can wait for now though as they look to progress in the Italian Cup - and with hardly anything between them it should be a decent tie.

Leg 1: Over 2.5 goals

Fiorentina's last four games have been 1-0s, but their last home meeting with Bologna ended 2-1 and i think we can get a few goals here too.

There'll be changes in the teams for the Coppa Italia, while Bologna have seen over 2.5 goals in three of their last four away games.

It's 13/102.30 on over 2.5 goals here as the bookies don't really expect to see too many, but this could easily go the way of the Serie A meeting here.

Leg 2: Ferguson 1+ shot on target

Bolgona's Scotland midfielder Lewis Ferguson is 4/61.67 for 1+ shot on target at Fiorentina and he's got enough form behind him - as he's second in the squad for shots on target this season.

He's hit the target in three of his last four games - and had one here against Fiorentina in the league meeting in November.

It's worth backing Ferguson to find another here.

Leg 3: Arthur Melo 1+ foul

Fiorentina are doing wonder to get as many games out of Brazilian midfielder Athur Melo as they are, given he spent most of his spell at Liverpool in the treatment room.

Arthur as given away 17 fouls so far this season - although he spends more time being the victim of foul player than the aggressor.

He's had a whipping 39 fouls carried out on him , but we'll back him at 4/91.44 to give one foul away this time.

Back over 2.5 goals, Ferguson 1+ shot on target and Arthur 1+ foul @ 4/15.00
