Bologna - Verona prediction and betting tips on February 23, 2024
The 26th round of the Italian Serie A will kick off with a match between Bologna and Verona at the "Renato Dall'Ara" stadium. Here's the prediction for this match from Dailysports experts.
Bologna
Under the guidance of Thiago Motta, the team has gained excellent momentum and is ready to break into the top 4 of the league table. Last weekend, the "red and blues" visited Rome, where they defeated Lazio 2-1. This victory marked the fourth consecutive win for Bologna in Serie A, and they have remained unbeaten in their last five matches. If not for their January slump, where Thiago Motta's men only earned two points in four games, the "red and blues" would have already surpassed Atalanta in the race for a Champions League spot. Currently, Bologna has 45 points, and they sit higher in the table than Bergamo's team due to a greater number of goals scored. It's worth noting that Bologna performs exceptionally well at home, having lost only once in 13 matches, with 10 victories.
Verona
Unlike their opponent, Verona is fighting for survival in the current season. After 25 rounds, the "mastiffs" have only accumulated 20 points, placing them in 18th position in the league table. However, their gap from safety is minimal, and even the team in 13th place, Lecce, with 24 points, cannot feel secure. Last weekend, Verona managed to secure a draw at home against Juventus (2-2). In the last five Serie A matches, the "yellow-blues" have earned three points, drawing three times. Verona has only won one match away from home, losing nine out of nine.
