Recent Hellas Verona and Bologna Matches Analysis

Hellas Verona Last 5 Matches:

• Hellas Verona 0-1 Lazio (Serie A)
• Napoli 2-2 Hellas Verona (Serie A)
• Hellas Verona 0-3 Torino (Serie A)
• AC Milan 3-0 Hellas Verona (Serie A)
• Fiorentina 1-2 Hellas Verona (Serie A)

Hellas Verona enters mid-January in a state of high anxiety, rooted near the bottom of the Serie A table. Their last five matches have yielded just four points, highlighted by a huge away win over relegation rivals Fiorentina and a gritty draw against Napoli. However, these flashes of quality were sandwiched between demoralizing defeats: a loss to AC Milan, a heavy home defeat to Torino, and most recently, a narrow loss to Lazio. While they have shown they can compete with the league's giants, their inability to keep clean sheets and find consistency has left them desperate for a turnaround.

Bologna Last 5 Matches:

• Como 1-1 Bologna (Serie A)
• Bologna 0-2 Atalanta (Serie A)
• Inter Milan 3-1 Bologna (Serie A)
• Bologna 1-1 Sassuolo (Serie A)
• Napoli 2-0 Bologna (Coppa Italia)

Bologna’s recent form has been a rollercoaster, particularly as they balance domestic duties with European competition. Serie A results have been harder to come by. They suffered a defeat to Juventus and a disappointing loss to Inter Milan, followed by a lacklustre draw with Sassuolo. Their most recent fixtures, a home loss to Atalanta and a draw with high-flying Como, suggest a team currently struggling for goals and defensive cohesion as they slip toward the mid-table

Key Players to Watch: Hellas Verona vs Bologna

Gift Orban (Hellas Verona): Verona has only scored four goals in their last five games; however, three of those have come from the young Nigerian forward. Having missed out on an AFCON call-up, Orban will be looking to continue his scoring streak in this upcoming fixture.

Riccardo Orsolini (Bologna): Orsolini’s downturn in form has coincided with Bologna’s. The 28-year-old hasn’t scored in the league since early December, but after being benched against Como last time out, could be back with a bang in this fixture.
