The post-match scheduled at 8:45 p.m. between Bologna and Udinese closes the 26th day of Serie A. At the Dall’Ara, the felsinei arrive motivated also thanks to the return to victory in the league (missing since January 15 against Verona) in the last round on the field of Toro and from the winning and tough European away match against Brann. The Rossoblù, however, due to the poor performance of the last 3 months, remain far from a European qualification, they are at -12 from Como, which occupies, at present, the position valid for the’access to the Conference League.

The Friulians, on the other hand, seem to have slowed down in the last period, the injuries of two pillars such as Davis and Zanoli seem to have affected the results in the last matches, in fact 2 heavy defeats came against Lecce and Sassuolo. The Bianconeri, however, are sailing in calm waters, they are +11 from the penultimate Fiorentina, which makes their fans sleep soundly.

Italian for this match must do without Lykogiannis due to a flexor injury and Dominguez due to flu. As for the lineup, Riccardo Orsolini should be seen again from the first minute with Rowe on the other flank, Pobega on the three-quarter, Freuler and Sohm are the favorites in the midfield, Vitik and Lucumì as center backs, Skorupski in goal.

Terrible scenes those seen during Red Star-Partizan
Fans threw everything on the field and police had to intervene with shields to protect the players
During the match some fans set fire to the stadium seats triggering a fire
A very dangerous gesture that obviously activated the stadium's warning protocols
Firefighters took immediate action to put out the flames and prevent anyone from getting hurt
Authorities are already working to trace the'identity of the perpetrators of this insane act

The perpetrators of the gesture endangered their health and that of other fans
The burning of plastic material, in addition, produces highly toxic pollutants
Unfortunately, firefighters were able to put out the'fire before it spread to other areas of the stadium
The perpetrators of the gesture will be punished with very severe penalties
Unfortunately no fans and no footballers were injured, that’s the important thing

Runjaic in addition to the already listed Davis and Zanoli will have out Kamara, Solet summoned but will sit on the bench who came out battered in the last match. The German coach, after the unsuccessful trials of the 4-4-2 in the last match against Sassuolo, is expected to return to the 3-5-2: Zaniolo and Buksa up front, Atta and Ekkelenkamp as half-wings, Zemura on the left, Kabasele together with Bertola and Kristensen to build the defensive trio.
