However, they have extended their unbeaten run to two games, which is a positive sign for the relegation-threatened team. Marco Zaffaroni’s men would be looking to capitalize on their recent form and secure a much-needed win at home.
Bologna, on the other hand, are still riding high on last weekend’s 1-1 draw against outgoing champions Milan. The visitors are in-form and are unbeaten in their last five games. Stefano Pioli’s much-rotated side were held in Emilia-Romagna despite edging the game for shots and Expected Goals (xG), which further highlights their strong form.

Verona vs Bologna Prediction
Considering Bologna’s recent form, they are the favorites to win the match. Bologna has scored two goals in five of their last six away games in Serie A, which is a remarkable feat. However, Verona is a tough team to beat at home, losing only one of their seven home games in 2023. Hence, this match could very well end in a high-scoring draw.
