Bologna will compete with Verona as part of the 1/16 finals of the Coppa Italia. The match will take place at Stadio Renato Dall'Ara on Tuesday, October 31, and will start at 21:00 CET.
Bologna
Bologna, if we take into account recent years, has been performing consistently in the Serie A, occupying the places in the middle of the table. The team is not participating in the struggle for survival, but also has no special claims to qualify for the European competitions.
It started the current season with a home defeat made by Milan. After that the results evened out a little: Bologna beat Cagliari, and the confrontations with Verona, Napoli, Monza and Juventus resulted in the draws. Then the team, thanks to a hat-trick scored by Riccardo Orsolini, left no chance for Empoli (3-0), reached the draw with Inter and defeated Frosinone. At the moment, Bologna is right behind the European tournament zone in the standings.
Verona
Verona, speaking about the previous season, finished in 18th place and was saved only in the play-off match with Spezia, managing to maintain the so-called “residence” in the elite division of the country. Prior to this, the team had finished in the middle of the table for three years.
Verona started the new championship under the rule of Marco Baroni. It immediately began to regularly collect the points, having taken the victories over Roma (2-1) and Empoli (1-0), as well as a draw in the struggle with Bologna. The matches against strong Sassuolo, as well as Atalanta and Milan, were lost.
After the higher mentioned results, the team “stalled” and is now in 16th place in the standings, just a few points from the relegation zone. As for the Coppa Italia, Verona beat modest Ascoli (3-1).
Interesting facts and the statistics of head-to-head matches
