Tips

Under 2.5

Verona don't score many goals but, they are equally tough to crack down. This makes for a low scoring match, when Bologna come visiting this coming Friday.

Bologna to win

The two teams rate more or less equal at the bookies, but in current form, and with Verona looking a little out of sorts, Bologna no doubt offers the value bet here.
