In their last game, the Lions beat Bayern Munich at home, with goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez making seven saves in a 1-0 victory. The Rossoblu started with a draw against Shakhtar Donetsk at the Renato Dall'Ara, 0-0. Early in the game, the Felsinei could have conceded, but goalkeeper Łukasz Skorupski saved a penalty from Georgiy Sudakov.

The hosts are one of six clubs to have kept a clean sheet in both Champions League matches. Youri Tielemans was involved in two of Birmingham’s four scoring attacks. The Lions became the first team in seven years to defeat Bayern Munich in the group stage.

Bologna are among the four teams that have yet to score in this round. Striker Riccardo Orsolini stated that the Rossoblu had several chances to take the lead against Shakhtar. Felsinei's coach Vincenzo Italiano believes his team need to improve their finishing. This season, the Greyhounds have played nine matches across all competitions, securing just one win.
