LiontipsVerona vs Bologna. Prediction and Betting Tips for Serie A (January 21, 2022).
Command Analysis
Verona endured a woeful start to the season, but after Igor Tudor was appointed head coach for the Mastiffs, the team managed to climb out of the crisis and even joined the race for the top-6 finish. At the moment, the hosts are in 10th position in the Serie A standings with a good chance of making the European club competition zone.
The Mastiffs have earned 30 points, only five points less than the 6th Fiorentina. However, the Violets have a game in hand, and they are not the only team that Verona have to worry about as Torino, Lazio, and Roma also hope to get European football next season.
In the last round of Serie A, Verona recorded a high-scoring victory over Sassuolo (4:2).
Bologna, on the other hand, had a solid start to the season, but soon dropped out of the top-10. Sinisa Mihajlovic's men alternated victories and defeats and managed only 27 points. The Rossoblu are currently in 13th place in the table.
The visitors have an 11-points handicap against the relegation zone and a game in hand. However, recent results of the team are disappointing - in the last round of games, Bologna lost 0-2 to Napoli, which was their fifth defeat in six matches. The team lost a number of key players to injury and covid after the winter break, which makes their position even more complicated.

Tip and bets
Verona beat Sassuolo in the last match and climbed onto 10th line in the table. But the Mastiffs lack consistency, and they haven't won two games in a row this season. In the last five home matches, Verona suffered three defeats and tied twice.
While Bologna are not in the best shape, we've seen some improvement lately. On top of that, Verona have been a very comfortable opponent for Bologna in recent years.
We believe that the hosts will not be able to win. Our prediction - Bologna to not lose
Bologna have lost five of the last six matches, and today the visitors will strive to get a win at any cost. Some of the Rossoblu's players will be back in the ranks for this game, and we expect that to make a difference. Verona have been colourless in their recent home games, so we think that Bologna will get the upper hand here.
Second wager - Bologna to win
