Prediction published on 23/02/2024, 06:29  by Sridhar in Serie A Predictions

Bologna’s top-four push sees them host a struggling Verona side on Friday in Serie A. This match will be played at the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara, with the hosts 5th in the table with 45 points and the visitors 17th with 20 points. Bologna are tied on points with Atalanta, although they played a game extra. They can temporarily go above them into the top four spots with a win. That looks like a distinct possibility, as the hosts have won their last four league games in a row. Scoring has certainly improved, as Bologna have scored 14 goals across their last five league games. This venue has been a lucky charm for Bologna, who have been unbeaten at this venue since September in all competitions. During this period, they have won 11 and drawn two matches, lending them an air of invincibility over their form.

Verona are just over the relegation zone, level on points with Sassuolo, who are in the last of the bottom-three spots. That said, the battle to avoid the drop seems to be quite interesting, as teams from 13th to 18th are separated by just four points. The visitors are at least being stubborn, drawing three of their last four league games. While this is a confident sign of things, the away record isn’t something that Verona would like to harp on. They have won just once on the road in this league campaign, and that was in the first away game of the season. Since then, there have been nine defeats and three draws for Verona away from home in Serie A.
