Hellas Verona, Recent FormThe 3-1 away defeat to Sassuolo will not have sat easily with the Hellas Verona squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. During that encounter they had 53% possession and had 11 attempts on goal with 3 on target, while their opponents hit 7 of their 16 shots on goal.
It seems pretty certain that Marco Baroni will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 7 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 11 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. Playing at home, they've conceded a goal in each of their last 8 games.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form, having lost 3 of their last 6 games and picking up only 2 wins.
Bologna, Recent FormHaving secured a 2-1 home win against Cagliari in their latest league match, Bologna will have a positive feeling ahead of this match. They achieved 72% possession in that match and had 16 strikes at goal, with 7 hitting the target, up against Cagliari's tally of 7 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 13 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 9 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. Their goal scoring streak away from home now stands at 8 games in a row.
They have had a good run of form recently, unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 3 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Lewis Ferguson will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Bologna's last 6 league games.
It was not a positive ending for Bologna last time they met Hellas Verona in the league, with the game ending in a 2-1 defeat.
I Rossoblù will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Verona having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 10 meetings.
Playing at home, Verona have won the last 2 and are unbeaten in the last 4 times they have faced Bologna in the league.
Verona manager Marco Baroni has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Jayden Braaf (Physical discomfort), Thomas Henry (Cruciate ligament), Ajdin Hrustić (Physical discomfort), Darko Lazović (Muscle) and Jackson Tchatchoua (Neck) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Musa Barrow (Muscle) and Adama Soumaoro (Cruciate ligament) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Thiago Motta will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
