Hellas Verona vs Bologna Prediction
Hellas Verona have been inconsistent throughout the campaign as they now push towards the middle-of-the-table but they were most recently beaten 2-0 by Juventus at the J Stadium in Turin the other day thanks to late goals from Teun Koopmeiners and Khephren Thuram. They face a Bologna side that lost several key men last year but with Vincenzo Italiano at the helm, they have rebuilt well to mean they begin this weekend’s round of fixtures sitting tucked inside the top six, having suffered just four defeats in their 27 Serie A matches so far this season. They recently backed up a 2-1 defeat of AC Milan by coming from behind to win by the same scoreline against Cagliari at the Renato Dall’Ara last weekend. Even at the Marcantonio Bentegodi, Bologna are favourites for this one.
