ℹ️ Team News: Hellas Verona

We think that Hellas Verona will possibly use the 3-5-2 formation for the game, handing starts to Lorenzo Montipo, Unai Nunez, Armel Bella-Kotchap, Nicolas Valentini, Rafik Belghali, Cheikh Niasse, Roberto Gagliardini, Antoine Bernede, Martin Frese, Giovane Nascimento and Gift Orban.

📰 Team News: Bologna

Bologna manager Vincenzo Italiano has to currently contend with reduced team options. Federico Bernardeschi (Broken collarbone) and Jhon Lucumí (Hamstring muscle injury) will miss out on this game. Nicolò Cambiaghi will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.

It’s our belief that Rossoblu seem most likely to play in a 4-2-3-1 system, settling for Federico Ravaglia, Emil Holm, Martin Vitik, T. Lysaker Heggem, Juan Miranda, Tommaso Pobega, Lewis Ferguson, Riccardo Orsolini, Jens Odgaard, Benjamin Dominguez and Santiago Castro.

🧠 Prediction

Our thinking is that Hellas Verona will really need to work well to score against this Bologna outfit who we think might get the win and a maybe even keep a clean sheet as well.

That’s why we have predicted a 0-1 win for Bologna when all is said and done.

Will be interesting to see how this one goes.
