Verona look to get back on course in the Serie A following a narrow 1-0 loss to Lazio, though the return of key defender Armel Bella-Kotchap should strengthen their back line. With Bologna struggling for form as well, we predict a 1-1 draw. The Mastini continue to struggle at the Bentegodi, taking just 0.60 points per home game of late and conceding 1.80 goals on average in their own stadium. Despite that, Verona usually stay competitive, with BTTS landing in 60% of their matches and an expected-goals output of 1.12 expected goals at home.
Bologna, meanwhile, have a consistency problem of their own, drawing four of their last five and sitting at 1.00 point per game across all venues. Forward Nicolo Cambiaghi is suspended, but key defender Jhon Lucumi should feature after overcoming a minor weekend knock. The Rossoblu create reasonably well—1.31 expected goals overall—yet lack clinical edge, scoring under one goal per match on average. Defensively, they haven’t kept a clean sheet in any of their recent outings, and away from home concede 1.60 goals per match.
The head-to-head favours Bologna (10 wins to 5), though most meetings have been tight, with only 38% finishing over 2.5 goals. Therefore, we are tempted to bet on Under 2.5 goals, alongside Draw and Half-Time Draw.
This Serie A match will be played on Thursday 15 January 2026 at 17:30.
