It has been a dream season for Bologna so far. The team is in the Champion League spots, they are playing good football and are a likely candidate for top 4. On the other hand, Hellas Verona will try to stave off relegation this year, despite being in the twilight zone before entering this game.
Bologna Team News
I Rossoblu secured a vital win away at Lazio last weekend. In the meantime, this win was their fourth successive one which marked the first time that Bologna managed this feat in this century. Thiago Motta’s boys are sure to be in high spirits, especially because they have yet to lose a home game this season. I Rossoblu have 9 victories from their last 10 competitive home games. The last 2 such games were also ones in which Bologna kept a clean sheet and managed to score at least 2 goals. The Red and Blues have accumulated more home points this season than any other team in Serie A.
Hellas Verona Team News
Looking at Verona we can see that the Yellow and Blues are poor when it comes to away games. Looking at their last 5 such league games, we will see 4 losses and 1 draw. On average, the team has conceded 1.4 goals while scoring just 3. Moreover, Verona has recorded just one away win so far this season. The probable silver lining for the Yellow and Blues is that they are coming off the back of 2 draws – one away at Monza, in which Verona kept a clean sheet and a home stalemate against Juventus. But if Verona wants to be in Serie A next season they must turn draws into wins.
Head-to-Head-Games

Bologna – Hellas Verona Betting Prediction
I believe Bologna will continue their impressive form here. They are solid as hosts, while Verona has an awful away record. I Rossoblu will also be motivated by their current win streak and the fact that the team is currently 4th. And we know that Thiago Motta’s boys are targeting Champions League football next season. So my pick here would be for Bologna to win.
