In what could turn out to be another lively affair from Serie A this weekend, Verona will host a struggling Bologna on Friday night.

Starting with the hosts, managing to pick up what was an action-packed victory last weekend, Verona will be desperate to find some stability in 2022. In their 22 Serie A matchups so far this season, they have recorded eight wins, six draws and eight defeats, scoring 41 and conceding 37 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 30, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat 10th in the table and holding a one-point buffer from slipping out of the top-half. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 4-1 win against Sassuolo on the road, that was just the second victory that Verona have collected from their last seven outings. Likewise, it should also be noted, along with each of their last three top-flight fixtures, Friday’s hosts have seen a trio of their previous four home fixtures finish with over 2.5 goals.

As for the visitors, putting in what was another worrying display earlier in the week, Bologna are in the midst of what has become a real downbeat run of form. In their 21 Serie A matchups so far this season, they have recorded eight wins, three draws and 10 defeats, scoring 28 and conceding 35 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 27, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat 13th in the table and three points adrift of finding a route into the top-half. However, as for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a deserved 2-0 loss against Napoli on home soil, Bologna have lost five of their last six matchups. Likewise, it should be noted, shipping at least a pair of strikes in each of those defeats, Friday’s guests have seen five of their last six away fixtures finish with over 2.5 goals.
