Serie A 2024-2025: Verona-Bologna, the likely lineups

Verona-Bologna, probable formations

Challenge with different, but equally crucial goals for Verona and Bologna. The Hellas are trying to keep the relegation zone at a distance, while the Rossoblù, returning from two consecutive successes, are aiming at the momentary hooking of Lazio, currently fifth and engaged in Monday’s postponement against Udinese.

Good news for Zanetti, who rejoins Tengstedt after more than a month, although the Danish striker will probably start from the bench. Up front, space for Sarr, supported by Suslov and Livramento. In defense Coppola and Valentini are sure of their places, while Dawidowicz è ahead of Ghilardi. Also possible starting jersey for Faraoni, with Tchatchoua moved to the left.

Italiano has to reckon with Freuler's absence due to disqualification: in the midfield Pobega è favored over Moro, while on the three-quarter Odgaard is back behind forward Castro. Orsolini and Ndoye should be the choices on the offensive flanks, preferred over Cambiaghi and Dominguez. In defense Beukema-Lucumì will form the central pair, with Calabria and Miranda on the lanes. Skorupski is confirmed in goal.

Likely lineups:

Verona (3-4-2-1): Montipò; Dawidowicz, Coppola, Valentini; Faraoni, Duda, Niasse, Tchatchoua; Suslov, Livramento; Sarr. Coach: Zanetti.

Bologna (4-2-3-1): Skorupski; Calabria, Beukema, Lucumì, Miranda; Ferguson, Pobega; Orsolini, Odgaard, Ndoye; Castro. Coach: Italiano.
