At the Bentegodi, the newly promoted Verona challenges Sinisa Mihajlovic's Bologna (to whom we send the most sincere wishes for a speedy recovery!) That will not be physically on the bench because he is fighting his toughest battle (nrd against leukemia) but constantly following the his boys with his usual determination and tenacity. Even the coach of the hosts Juric will not be on the bench because he is disqualified.

Verona arrives at this season's debut with two very heavy suspended players or the striker Di Carmine and Vitale in addition to the injured Crescenzi and Badu. For a squad not of the highest level like that of the Venetian team (many reconfirmed by the B and some purchases not of the highest level for this season) this type of absences could weigh a lot and in fact to the exclusion of Pazzini (now 35 years old) who could replace Di Carmine the other substitutes should be Kumbulla, Henderson and Zaccagni ...

The Bologna, after the well-known story of Mihajlovic with which last year it has practically risen, will play in the field just for the coach throwing the heart beyond the obstacle and in the excellent summer friendlies with European teams of good level in which he does not have for nothing disfigured we saw this attitude more and more empowered of the players. When it comes to training, there are no particular problems and the 11 that can currently be considered the holders with Palacio supported by the Orsolini - Soriano - Sansone trio should take the field.

A Bologna victory to start the championship with a win and make Sinisa smile is a real possibility!
