Current streaks

Recent form

Bologna

Bologna are in fine form, having gone unbeaten in their last six matches across all competitions. The Rossoblu have won four and drawn two during this run, showcasing their defensive prowess with an impressive five clean sheets. Their recent performances have been particularly noteworthy, with Bologna scoring 12 goals whilst conceding only twice, resulting in a remarkable goal difference of +10. The team's offensive capabilities were on full display in their 4-0 thrashing of Monza in the Coppa Italia, whilst their 3-0 victory over Venezia in Serie A further underlines their attacking threat. Bologna's current streak of six games without defeat is a testament to their resilience, and their ability to compete at the highest level was evident in their creditable 0-0 draw away to Benfica in the Champions League. With a goal-scoring average of 2 per game and a miserly 0.33 goals conceded per game over this period, Bologna are demonstrating the kind of form that could see them challenge for European qualification in Serie A.

Hellas Verona

Hellas Verona are currently struggling in 17th position in Serie A, with their recent form showing a worrying trend. The team have lost five of their last six matches, including a four-game losing streak that was only briefly interrupted by a 3-2 away victory against Parma. Verona's defensive woes are particularly evident, having conceded a staggering 16 goals in their last six games, with an average of 2.67 goals conceded per match. Their inability to keep clean sheets is highlighted by a 14-game run without one. Two notably high-scoring games stand out: a 5-0 thrashing by Inter Milan and a 4-1 home defeat to Empoli. With only 5 goals scored in their last 6 matches, Verona are struggling at both ends of the pitch, resulting in 67% of their recent games seeing over 2.5 goals.

Recent home/away form

Bologna

Bologna have been in impressive form at home, boasting a strong run of four consecutive wins in their most recent home fixtures across all competitions. The Rossoblu have been particularly formidable in domestic matches, securing three straight victories in Serie A and the Coppa Italia. Their defensive prowess is noteworthy, with four clean sheets in their last six home games, conceding only three goals during this period. The standout performance came in their 4-0 thrashing of Monza in the Coppa Italia, showcasing their attacking potential. Despite two losses in the Champions League, Bologna have maintained a solid goal difference of +7 in their last six home matches, averaging 1.67 goals scored per game whilst conceding a mere 0.5 goals per game. This impressive home form has undoubtedly contributed to their current 7th position in Serie A.

Hellas Verona

Hellas Verona have endured a difficult run of form away from home, with their recent victory against Parma breaking a streak of five consecutive away defeats. The team's defensive frailties have been particularly evident on the road, conceding an alarming average of 2.67 goals per game and failing to keep a single clean sheet in their last six away matches. A standout result in this run was the heavy 6-1 defeat at the hands of Atalanta, highlighting their vulnerability away from home. Despite their struggles, Verona have managed to find the net in four of these six games, contributing to the high-scoring nature of their away fixtures, with 67% of matches seeing over 2.5 goals. Their recent win against Parma, a 3-2 thriller, showcases their ability to participate in entertaining, goal-filled encounters, even if results haven't always gone their way.
