Bologna – Red Bull Salzburg Tip Europa League, Matchday 5 on Thursday, 27/11/25 at 21:00
I’m completely with the many reputable football betting providers when they favor the Italians, that’s right. However, the extremely one-sided odds gap takes away my personal desire to put a corresponding Bologna Red Bull Salzburg tip into practice!
Because in my eyes, the guests are greatly underestimated. Although the team from Mozartstadt is no longer the best team in the Alpine republic, RBS has reliably scored in 17 of the last 18 away games in all competitions – even against well-known opponents such as FC Brugge.
Therefore, the bet “Both teams to score” on the betting slip seems sensible to me, flanked by the option “Double Chance X2”, if you dare to take this second step at all. In any case, it wouldn’t be a sensation if the guests also took a point at the end …
Bologna vs. Red Bull Salzburg AI Predictions:
The Italians are undoubtedly a team perfectly set up by Vincenzo Italiano, but they have only lived up to their role as favourites once in the Europa League so far – a narrow 2-1 win against Steaua Bucharest.
Against this background, I can very well understand the betting recommendation generated as part of our Bologna Red Bull Salzburg AI prediction, to win RBS with handicap +2″ at average odds around 1.72.
This is more attractive than a classic home win bet and is so promising precisely because if Bologna has the upper hand at all in the end, it will probably only be thanks to a close result such as 1-0 or 2-1.
Predicted chance of winning:

An away win bet on Red Bull Salzburg is recommended to more courageous bettors, but the extremely attractive odds of about 7.50 do not deceive me for a second about the acute defensive problems of the Mozartstadt team.
In each of their last six Europa League away games, they have conceded at least two goals. In the long run, it’s just hard to win this way, even if your own offense hammers a brace into the opponent’s net!
Against this background, the bet “Both to score” seems to be particularly useful on Thursday – our data model recommends it as well as the use of a bet-at-home odds boost to further increase the potential profit.
